I agree with Ryan. I win.

You can develop awareness. But that is about being in a state of mind where you take in everything about your surroundings. With practice you naturally notice where, for example, fire exits are in case there is an emergency, or will habitually walk some distance away from an enclosed doorway, just in case someone is hiding there. This is just like the advanced driver, who trains to see what is going on around him in a much better way than the average driver, so he is more prepared to deal with potential emergencies.

You can even learn to read peoples intent during a fight. But that is by picking up on their physical movement, or even their speech/pupil dilation etc. It is not mind reading.

BUT NONE OF THESE THINGS CAN BE LEARNED BY PRACTISING FORMS! NONE OF THEM. ZILCH. ZEROZOID. NIL POINTS!

You have succesfully ridiculed Forms. Serious and knowledgeable Chinese Martial Arts practitioners must be looking for you. The quicker they shut you up, the better reputation their arts will have.
