I've thought about this before. I have decided that my years of playing with legos as a child has led to my being able to see up to about 8 instantly, since the average longest lego I'd use was 8 by 1 knobs long. A single file line much longer than that becomes a bit confusing.

If someone can honestly look at even one of those groupings and instantly know how many dots there are, that is... implausible, quite frankly.
