You've identified a fundamental gap - that meta-cognitive "I could retrieve this" intuition that humans have but LLMs lack.

Our graph approach addresses this: - Structure knowledge with visible relationship patterns before loading details

- Retrieval system "senses" related information without fetching everything

- Temporal tracking prioritizes recent/relevant information

- Planning recall frequency tracking for higher weightage on accessed facts

In SOL(personal assistant), we guide LLMs to use memory more effectively by providing structured knowledge boundaries. This creates that "I could know this if I looked" capability.
