I have a problem with the

I have a problem with the idea that the I-function is inessential to an athlete's performance.  At least in the case of an equestrian.  While I rely on correct reflexes when jumping my horse around a course of obstacles, I would probably crash with out thinking.  My mare is young and inexperienced; she has a relatively undeveloped judgement.  In the middle of a course, I need to evaluate my mare's performance and make informed adjustments and decisions.  My response to her requires my I-function, I believe.  Without this meta component, my ride will lack finesse and sophistication.
