Identical actions are impossible to do. No matter how great you are at throwing a basket ball, the ball will never hit exactly the same spot even if you allow for full nanometers of tolerance (and even then it wouldn’t be identical).
So if your definition of “doing the same thing” is to do each repetition absolutely identical, then the whole statement is an impossibility, and then we don’t need to talk about this at all, because it’s already impossible to “do the same thing” multiple times.
If you allow for variance though, your whole argument doesn’t work anymore.
I teach MMA. I specialize in BJJ. When I’m showing someone a technique, I show them the proper way. They then do the move, and most times they get 90% of it right but have to keep working on that last %10. If they just practice that over and over at %90 it’ll never be good. They need someone there correcting it, until they perfect it. Once you perfect it, you expect the same outcome over and over from the same thing. That is muscle memory.
