I mean to each their own. Sometimes if I catch a page and the rabbit hole leads to the devs code, I look under the covers.
And sometimes it's a bug I can identify and fix pretty quickly. Sometimes faster than the dev team because I just saw another dev team make the same mistake a month prior.
You gotta know when to cut your losses and stop searching the rabbit hole though, that's true.
I agree with your nuance, but that's not my default mode, unless I know the language and the domain well I am not going to write an MR. I'm going to read the stack trace to see it it's a conf issue though.
