I think this is a great framework to explain dyspraxia. It's not a matter of getting distracted, or slow thinking, it's random failures in each component part.

You don't get distracted and forget what number you were counting, you jump from 5 to 7 because the increment process is unreliable.
It's not that you "Aren't paying attention", you let the pot boil over because your agent that watches the environment in the background randomly left the office because you thought about something else for a brief moment and the agent that manages the stack and returns to the previous task went on vacation.
Your conscious experience is the same, but you can take wildly incorrect actions because whatever agent gave you the data is wrong.
