That is all interesting and well-referenced, but what are practical consequences?

Since childhood, or infancy, I have always been bad at facial recognition. In spite of mother saying "look, there's Aunt Lucille; say hello to Aunt Lucille" and etcetera. I was not truly looking at the face. Instead I was trying to figure out what I was supposed to say. Poor facial recognition skill has persisted in my life. So, now you have supplied an idea of why I am bad at chess: one of the necessary functions is not functioning well. Thanks for the insight.

If you're interested in finding out more about differences in face recognition, you can check out this website that includes links to the Cambridge Face Memory Test (a standardized test of "Face blindness" or prosopagnosia). https://faceblind.org.uk/diagnosis/face-recognition-tests/
