That’s not a plugger trait, that situation happens to “everyone” at some point in their lives. Heck, I’m not a plugger and I’ve had that happen a few times.
No, it’s not even that, it’s.. Oh, look… a squirrel on my mailbox!. where’s my camera? Who left this tax bill on theOh wait, no stamps.. must write that on the shopping list..The pencil is on the kitchen table and the list is next to the computer and I SHOULD Google ‘Threshold Phenomenon’ but the computer is ‘updating’ and something just went ‘ding’ in the kitchen.
I don’t have that problem. I have a photographic memory. I just can’t remember to put film in the camera. And when I do, I remember I never learned to develop said film.
If you forget what you came into a room for just step back out and it resets your brain, when you go back in you know what you’re there for. It works for me all the time!!!

Smithsonian magazine did an article back in 2011 on this. Has to do with the change in surroundings.
