I am fine with that. In most cases they aren't though. Or they don't understand the whole environment.

My experience is about 50/50, both with my own mistakes and with others.
Generally when one is very close to the problem, one sees the environment as immutable. Because, well you spent very many hours building that environment, for very good reasons. And your complex solution "has to" work within the constraints of that complex environment.
Whereas, the "mind of a child" that doesn't grok the environment, also doesn't have a fixed notion of it. This is anecdotal of course, but maybe half the time what I see happen is that it's easier/better to change the environment and this can only be seen with fresh eyes.
It's not the spoon that bends, and it's not you that bends around the spoon. There is no spoon.
