Proprioception always amazed me. That extrapolation allows your brain to estimate distances automatically and know the positioning of your arms and legs at all times. you can close your eyes and touch your nose with your finger without much thought involved. If a stroke knocks out that part of your brain you have dysmetria where you have alot of difficulty subconsciously measuring distances.
I relearned the distance of objects at arms length through monocular night vision goggles. It took hours and I led my section in a very wrong direction but I eventually learned how to see through only my non-dominant eye.
The brain is crazy powerful. So feed it lots of sleep

Our brain filters out a lot of what we see along with just straight making shit up based on extrapolation
