That doesn’t seem like the kind of precision most people have trouble with, though teaching it explicitly might help people who have trouble getting started on programming.
Do you think knowing how to program helps people be sufficiently explicit about other subjects?

Probably not, because of compartmentalization.
I wonder, though, if there is some sort of similar activity that:
Doesn’t require expert instructors (some feedback is obvious or automatic)
Deals with less mathematical and more “real world” problems
Builds skills that transfer well to other domains.
Management, which is at times remarkably similar to the “malicious idiot” game...
