The Sapir Whorf hypothesis (language defines what we can perceive and think) is mostly wrong for natural language, but true for programming. Computer languages don't differ in what they can do but in how they let us think.

Those operators are (some of) the new chunks that I believe are acquired. But there's also just general pattern-recognition, along the lines of http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.601.2724&rep=rep1&type=pdf …

So do you think that operators that transform a whole map (for instance represented as a lattice of grid cells) are implemented as a chunk, i.e. a single local operator with only a handful of parameters (= latent variables of the space generated by the operator)?
