... I appear to have lost automatic recall of 7 times 9, as well as why I noticed the problem in the first place.

To this very day, I almost always work out multiples of 9 in my head like this:

7-1 = 6
9-6 = 3

7*9 = 63

Hold all ten fingers up. From left to right, count off seven fingers. Put the 7th one down. 6 fingers on the left. 3 on the right. 63

Must be why most of you go barefoot.
