Yeah the idea is skip names as the foundation altogether. Instead characterize the spaces by their properties and symmetries, and when there's an exact number of things (like bones) use a GUI (body diagram, decision tree) to air recall so people can just learn the names on the job.

Ah, yes, the best way to learn all the intricacies of a human: osmosis.

Good luck attaining knowledge that takes 8+ years of focused study in medical training today through osmosis over 30 years of "on the job" training, being paid $0 because you are still "learning" and can't contribute to anyone's actual medical care during that time unlike a resident physician.
