Some, but not much science on the topic. Sure could be mentally addling, certainly for some, imo. I don't attribute my healthy mental clarity to the pot. Maybe, I don't think so. All in all my assumption is pot is a health negative.

But for the past few years looking at math problems.. it's like a rain man thing happens. My vocabulary is more available. When I forget why I entered a room I can overcome that blank brain feeling and bring my purpose to mind pretty quick. I easily can find lost stuff by deduction.

I'm not saying I'm some Brainiac, far from it. Probably the bright glow before the bulb burns out, lol.

Interesting about your skills after a few. (I quit at 30 yo.) People are different but it seems everyone has an inclination to alter their consciousness. That's why little kids spin around to get dizzy, I guess.

“Interesting about your skills after a few.”

A few. I attribute it to lessening performance anxiety and the tunnel vision effect. In pool or hitting a baseball, you have a narrow tunnel of vision to focus on and are less distracted by peripheral vision noise. More than a few and the slop and slower reactions kick in. Playing in outfield it was not a plus. Running bases a plus, since let’s say when tagging up, you are normally too cautious and with a few, you go for ones (and 95% make) you might not have tried.
