Yes. It's fewer than 7 (more like 3), and each slot takes one 'symbol'. A symbol is anything that's in long term memory. Symbols are also recursive. It could thus be, for instance, a chess opening of 15 moves. This is why an expert player can memorize usual chess games easily, but struggles with truly random arrangements of chessmen. In the latter case, an expert does not outperform a beginner.

It could be interesting if we can create custom neural processors to excel at particular kinds of tasks.

Like temporarily, or permanently, allocate some part of the brain for a certain configuration, beyond what experts can do and closer to what a processor can do.
