I discovered a while ago that all those errors and bugs that only appear when you demo something to an audience also magically appear when you record yourself demoing it to nobody. Maybe narrating a feature to a pretend audience takes the blinders off enough that you notice little mistakes you wouldn't have otherwise.

Very similar to the process of rubber duck debugging.

Back in my office days we was doing this constantly. The sentence "will you be my rubber duck" always put smile on my face

I often wish I had a pet dog husky so I could walk him through some tricky python and have him figure out my bug with me.
