It's actually kind of hard to remember both versions at the same time, it's like they're natural enemies and one tries to blot the other out.

Do you also have the same problem when playing catch trying to correct for the curvature of gravity waves?

No because one of the more interesting aspects of the human mind is that it intuitively grasps the highly complex physics of the projectile and can tell you where to stick your hand to catch the ball with a remarkably high degree of accuracy. Now if I actually tried to calculate it I'd be done an hour after the ball hit the ground, so I suppose that's some sort of conflict of knowledges there, but I've always been pretty good at knowing when to go by instinct.
