Indeed. Even just playing video games, so many times I'd find the Magic Thingamajoober that saves your life against scary monster Fuzzlewump so long as you push X when you're being attacked. "Remember to push X. Remember to push X." Then a Fuzzlewump comes and starts wumping you withing an inch of your life, you're panicked and fighting back using your sword and shield the only way you know how. Fuzzlewump wins, "Do you want your possessions identified?", and only then you realize you forgot all about the Thingamajoober you were saving for exactly this scenario.
This is why in real life people train against dangerous scenarios. Brains just don't work under fight-or-flight conditions, even when there's a pause button.
