I think this realization is one of the most helpful parts of Anki. Remembering stuff is always harder than we think it is, SRS forces you to face that fact head-on. It doesn’t mean “don’t use SRS”, I think SRS is still worthwhile, it just means you have to be more intentional about what you decide to commit to memory. Personally, after 10+ years of consistent SRS, I focus only on vocabulary/terminology and fundamentals. Trivia is never worth it.
