There's a Matt vs Japan video that says that Anki can mess up your internal sense of how frequent certain words are (especially if those words are very infrequent/rare versions) -- these rare words become more available to your mind due to SRS even if nobody uses them.

I wonder how much this applies to SRS in other subjects. e.g. could it mess up a mathematician's intuitions for which theorems one could apply in a given situation?
