It seems to me that tasks like this differ.
Take a task like; say for example landing a small twin-screw vessel in unfavorable conditions. It is similar to something like down hill skiing, it takes skill and practice but it’s not really a situation where information overload would take place.
By contrast as you say keeping track of engine order, wheel position, bow thruster, tugs, lines etc it’s possible to temporally lose track of some vital part of the situation.
This, for example doesn’t strike me as a situation where information overload is an issue. It’s just a skill thing.
It might feel very intense at the time but there would be tight focus on only a few items that required attention.
