Well, if THAT'S what we're talking about, that doesn't really make sense. How do you "forget" that the Avatar bends all 4 elements?

Like I said, my theory on that is that learning bending is like learning everything else: It creates new pathways in the brain. Amon, according to my theory, simply destroys those pathways. Since she hadn't learned airbending yet, there was nothing to cut off.
