This, exactly.

I've spent way more time troubleshooting various obscure network problems that ended up being a typo in IP address/port number, than I'd be proud to admit.

Right. When I do "remember" an IPv4 it's usually that I've committed a /24 to long-term through repeated exposure, and then I really just have the 8 bits in short term memory.
