Yeah this becomes very noticeable when you're deliberately learning facts with Anki.
For example when trying to learn immunology, "This bacterium causes neural bacteriumeritis", score 100% on the set of cards after a few sessions.
Add "What are the possible causes of neural bacteriumeritis?" and sometimes I'd draw a blank.
There's a lot of nuance in how we learn facts and their relationships.
It reminds me a lot of data structures in programming to be honest. It's a lot easier to retrieve a person's age from a dictionary indexed by first-name+last-name than from a list with 10000 objects with people in them.
