I uesd to accept this but after he revealed that novices learned to operate his zoom world system in less than one minute, I have changed my mind.

For tens of millions of years, our ancestors made it back to the nest or we wouldn't be here. Geographic navigation like that or like operating a zoom world system take advantage of the tens of millions of years when the talent for learning such skills was pounded into our DNA.

This may not be what we think of as intuition, but it's more than just familiarity that powers the ease of learning exhibited.

You might expect computer experts to be even quicker than novices but they took two minutes to become proficient in operating the zoom world system.
