I understand your point, but I don't think anyone other than that person can determine what someone may or may not forget. One of the guys at a firearms store here was telling me about an instance with an FBI agent a few years ago who was used to carrying his gun on his person in a certain place. One morning he switched it to a different spot and when something went down, he was shot because he wasted too much time trying to find his gun. Most people would think that he should have just been able to feel the weight of it and reached for it, but that wasn't the case. Some people carry it so often that they are no longer that sensitive to the weight of it.
