but we all know that some people are good at remembering phone numbers, and some aren’t, while some are good at remembering birth dates and others aren’t. That is normal human variation.
No, this is far outside what I consider human normality to easily remember birth dates and numbers. This is not “good memory”, this is memory which works completely differently from how mine works.
The obvious reason that it is a bad thing is that a single example contains no information about the range of variation in the population it is drawn from. You will know more if you look around you, and observe the actual range.
But this is elementary stuff. Frankly, I am at a loss to find any interpretation of “I don’t see this as a bad thing at all” that is compatible with being here in the first place.

You seem to be equating “human normality” with “how mine works”.
Yes, this is exactly what I’m doing, and I don’t see this as a bad thing at all.
