I think in the judgment and decision making (JDM) realm none of this particularly earth shattering and others have expressed more valid models. In particular, Gary Klein has done a lot of work with decision making under stress and time pressure.
He packaged these ideas as Recognition Primed Decision Making. Basically, intuitive decision making is effective when a person has built a broad corpus of experiences that allow a quick leap to an appropriate answer. A neophye, on the other hand, has to grind through cues, develop courses of action and evaluate them in a much more explicit nature. Thus...
"Before we did this study, we believed that novices impulsively jumped at the first option they could think of, whereas experts carefully deliberated about the merits of different courses of action. Now it seemed that it was the experts who could generate a single course of action, while novices needed to compare different approaches." (Klein)

I'm currently reading the Wisdom of Crowds. I do collaboration research and I have found he puts a fresh spin on things and fleshes out some concepts that I have had tacit understanding of.
If you are really interested in this, you should check out Sources of Power: How People Make Decisions by Gary Klein.
Klein has been a name in judgment and decision- making circles for some time. His book is well written and is theoretically pretty sound. He addresses the use of heuristics in decision-making.
