Personally I rather think that what makes a human good at certain tasks is not necessarily a conscious effort, and that doesn't have to be a trivial task. So then actively thinking longer doesn't help as much because you lack the control over the thought-process. I believe very much that Go falls in that category, where Chess does not.
