Perfect control over memory.

So able to remember anything with high detail, but also able to forget the cringey stuff from middle school

Honestly, this is not a minor super power.

Maybe if there was a limit to how much you can remember. Like your brain runs out of storage kinda lol

But you have all the permissions in your brain. If you'd like you can delete English and learn Chinese when you're going on a trip. Maybe you can even forget how to breathe or forget what other food tastes like so I can go on a diet that has nasty food.

My biggest fear would be by the time I'm like 60 i would be attached to too many memories and wouldn't be able to learn new things

Ig it's not too different than regular older people lol. There are some people at work that I've taught them how to attach a file to an email like 5 times already and they just don't learn
