Interesting -- analogous to memorizing orientations "at a glance"?

You said at some point that a random position is not "meaningful" 
information (or something similar) and that "meaning" increases as the 
cube is solved.
But you can easily imagine someone breaking up the pattern of 
orientations into blocks that they could solve independently of the 
rest, so that the "random" pattern of orientations would 
become "meaningful" in the context of their solution method.

The permutation is harder, though the cycles could be thought of as the 
meaningful content for anyone who solves along cycles.  You might 
imagine someone being able to memorize a cycle as soon as they had 
perceived it (maybe some can do this already?), but the rate limiting 
step would be "seeing the cycle" in the first place.

Sorry if someone has already said the same thing in this thread...
