While technological infrastructure has scaled infinitely, the human operator&rsquo;s cognitive capacity remains biologically constrained. This physiological and psychological bottleneck results in information overload, diminished situational awareness, and catastrophic decision-making failures in high-stakes environments. Addressing this crisis requires a radical departure from traditional technocentric design paradigms, necessitating a pivot toward a human-centric approach grounded in cognitive ergonomics, neurophysiology, and behavioral science.</p>
