Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Bob Marshall's blog on flow, lean and agile thinking. HN readers link it for its advice on going only as deep as needed to solve a problem, and as a resource for project managers to start with.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

What Hacker News says?
This mentality is what leads to paint drip shaped people. It's a very good practice in my experience. Go just as deep as you need to solve the problem. https://flowchainsensei.wordpress.com/2021/07/28/kent-becks-...
