"excruciating details"? I don't think I would ever get to the network if you asked that. I would have to cover how you pressing "enter" gets encoded by the keyboard, how the USB bus works, the interrupt processed by the processor, how that context switch happens, how the next instruction is fetched and decoded by the CPU, how the code for the interrupt gets read, TLB, L1/L2 cache, pipelined execution, microinstructions, transistors, ...

Depth-first doesn't work when the depth of reality is basically unlimited.
