I solve cryptograms in my head. I think most anyone could, with (perhaps) some instruction and practice. This is only one of the many ways I can manage large quantities of information at the forefront of my thinking, and to me this to me makes a mash of cognitive load theory. I mean, think about it: if cognitive load theory were really a thing, we couldn't perform common tasks with multiple simultaneous inputs, such as driving a car. Terry Freedman offers similar considerations in his expression of doubt bout cognitive load theory. How it came to be a cornerstone of (instructivist) learning theory is a mystery to me.
