I don't know that this is the case. I was just speculating in response to the claim upstream that Gawande "chose to overlook the studies about how transient the benefit of checklists is." I too would like to see the citations. If there was a study showing this regression, I would be interested to see if it controlled for this sort of factor.
But I agree with you wholeheartedly. I don't want my mind cluttered with stuff that can be handled by simple script.
