This is especially true in the age of internet where information is widely distributed.
Even without the internet, however, it is still useful to find ways to refer to things or store them locally whether by archiving or creating related notes.
This doesn't mean that you should avert remembering, that would be silly as little remembering is still required.

You're still trying to understand a concept, after all.
The gist of it is knowing the basics of a concept and its relations to others, enabling you to come up with a more effective search query.

In other words, fake it till you make it.
This is how projects start.
Envision how you would use the end product then create a prototype that completes it no matter how badly implemented.
