I think about this a lot, actually. It's SO easy to lose yourself in the snakepit of details in any system, eventually wasting a lot of mental energy on the lore of "how did we get here?” rather than questioning assumptions and reasoning from first principles about where you *should* be. Learning the lessons of the past is helpful, but allowing those lessons to be a source of inertia is not.
