To be fair, I've known a handful of people who can do that effectively without getting lost. However, I'd say they are the minority and its really a "luck of genetics" thing rather than a learned skill. No one I've met who claims it was a skilled they learned actually can do it. I'm willing to believe people exist who do, but I suspect they fall under the "luck of genetics" category and just convinced themselves they learned it. Or it could be a mix of both. However, 90% of people I've met that do it do meet the OP's "blindspot" criteria.
