Excellent points and very true to my experience. I like this. I like it so much I'm wary of it being the last word. Accounting for details & getting perspective elsewhere is incredibly important for solving problems.

But with details alone in mind it's easy to fall into the trap of "there must be 1 more detail I'm missing" ad infinitum.

If you do anything where you have to solve problems in a fixed period of time, it's important to decide when to pivot to a new, more productive problem (depending on the scale of your problem and freedom to change).

Take this advice or learn it the hard way.
