What's difficult, is I now spend most of my time on these high-throughput tasks, where my brain isn't exactly off, but focused on quantity over quality. It's often difficult to identify when a task requires "real" brain-power, and when it does, it adds a lot of friction to dig into the code and orient myself. So it's hard to know when it's the right time to do that.
