metacognition is certainly a related thing, but i think discussion of it is generally too abstract to be directly useful for modeling human thinking without first applying it to real brains. this doesn’t mean it’s inappropriate, only that i think it needs to be more concrete than what is typically discussed under the topic of metacognition to be useful.
