@dysfun@treehouse.systems For sure, I'm the same - and I often go a bit beyond that, trying to complexity-reduce problems that are widely believed to be non-reducible (with mixed but nonzero success).

But there's a lot of history and experience and personal development behind that attitude towards things, and I really think we need a more effective way to convey this to *new* developers, without requiring them to stumble along for 10 years first :/
