Not really, though. They're both (retracting the gear, and cutting off fuel) just toggle switches, as far as your brain's conscious mechanisms go. Doing them both on every flight dulls the part of your brain that cares about how they feel different to perform.
(I'm not strongly arguing against the murder scenario, just against the idea that it's impossible for it to be the confusion scenario.)

This would be like opening your car door when you meant to activate the turn signal.

Given enough practice, the brain takes care of the physical actions that manipulate those philosophical toggles without conscious thought about performing them.
