Am I the only one to find knowledge of cognitive biases to be of no use whatsoever?

Someone should write a framework for putting cognitive biases to practice.
Kinda like this

First time I've seen that, but after a skim it seems to say that you _can't_ put models into practice (unless they are from your lived experience).
Did I miss something (in a later part by only looking at part 1)?

The series argues that the models that are valuable are the tacit ones. It then goes through various methods for taking what is explicit and making it tacit.
I take issue with ‘mental models’ being used where the word ‘framework’ would do, but I don’t address it explicitly.
Yeah, it seemed to be going somewhere (mostly part 3) but always walked it back afterward.
"There is ultimately no truth except that which you uncover for yourself."
But ending the series by describing the lack of qualifications leaves room for hope (i.e. Confirmation Bias).
