Time management is different for everyone, and when you're on a deadline, or just dealing with a one-off situation, the extra research has no value.

Sometimes you don't need to know how the clock works, you just need to know what time it is.

I totally agree. There are exceptions to every rule, but random people on the internet who you aren't being paid to solve the problem for by a very large majority would benefit more from education than having their problem solved for them.

Teach a man to fish and all that.
