I’ll offer my guess, or perhaps version, of this — to have an edge in making sense of things requires a distributed relational cognition where knowledge is decentralized through a network of other people’s brains with yours as the indexing-accessing-synthesizing node

If you grok a situation/person completely you can respond to it with Fingerspitzengefuhl as if you had already previously encoded knowledge from a relationship or past (the most Ribbonfarmish thing I have ever said!)

Advanced knowledge is one way, a relationship is two ways, with two way iterations on that knowledge.
