This was by far the most frustrating part for me.

At one point, for 3x3x3 BLD, I had a pretty good system down where the layout -> mnemonic translation was very fast, but I still found it really hard to just retain it all in my head. Edge permutations in particular were really hard to memorize quickly. (I did corner orientation, corner permutation, then edge orientation, edge permutation). The whole thing is super exhausting.

I tried doing edges first but then for some insane reason I'd completely forget the corner stuff! It made no sense to me.
