This is my prime concern when teaching and writing. Other terms for this I've seen is Expert Blindness and Expert Blindspot. A related term I've made up is Cognitive Empathy; ones ability to overcome this curse.

I've struggled a lot myself in school, and I think that had something to do with this.

With my current experience, just about any textbook I pick up and start reading, I can often pinpoint a lot of issues in the text that has this problem.
