I find this to be quite true. I learned a fairly slow method back in the 80's and can't remember all of the details so I have to figure it out. I don't run across a cube more than say once a year, so it may take 2-3 minutes to solve it. But part of the time I'm doing memorized sequences which allow looking up at a person while solving. You have a little conversation while doing it, and at the end you just put it down like it's not a big deal. The person looks at you not quite sure if there's any significance to what just happened and then you move on as if you were timing your nails or something. It's just a fun little thing to do from time to time.
