Personally, I simply cannot _recall_ anything unless I understand it at least superficially. I may be able to _remember_ if prompted, but my memory is simply organized around my own definitions and understanding.

Maybe us engineering types are hardwired this way. I suspect, however, that non-engineering types aren't wired this way due to poor parenting, weak schools, and fundamentally broken reward and punishment systems.
