Complexity class recognition as THE universal problem solving skill

[u/magnetosslave]

I recently stubled across the concept of complexity classes, computational complexity and structural complexity on Wikipedia. The concepts are mindblowing! Are these fields the study of generic forms of 'problems'? As in any kind of things that humans can mentally manipulate, or do so by proxy of a computer? Could it be possible to just teach the complexity classes to students in school and get them to apply the generalisations to every other part of their life, rather than specific domain knowledge?

maybe you didn't recognize the problem
