Like a lot things aviation in the US, we assume if you don't know it, you don't need to know. Go into most US airports on a CAVOK day and you will be asked to identify a plethora of landmarks, "cleared visual approach after passing XXXX, maintain 2000 feet until the freeway on final".

Most of us don't know 'em. At least, you have time to find the gate, Depart Santa Ana, CA on a busy morning. Auctioneers are slower.
