fun example of people being completely unaware of what they do: When I did the user studies for visual studio, we asked people whether they used the mouse frequently. Of those who were adamant that they barely touched the mouse at all, they spent ~half the task using it

When confronted with videos showing exactly that, they talked about how it was an unfamiliar environment or new tasks. Observations in place showed the same. Part of what made the result so interesting was that the mouse use seemed to be tied to the current mode of thought

I play a lot of Rocket League, I’m ranked above 99% and can confirm what you said about Overwatch applies as well. I improved from tutorials, people analyzing replays and watching my own. But the breakthrough was paying $10 for a pro to analyze my replays. Went from 90% to 99%.

For context there are over 30 million players so 1% is still a lot of people.

"This post is going to refer to specifics since the discussions I've seen about this are all in the abstract, which turns them into Rorschach tests." I really liked this even though most of the examples were from Overwatch, a video game I've never played. Yay concrete examples!

When I watched video of myself teaching, I noticed a _lot_ of obvious low-hanging fruit improvements, which weren't that hard to change (e.g. wait time, question phrasing) A potential explanation (similar to 'looking foolish') - it's emotionally unpleasant to see your errors.
