Lens: Outside the Box
The final lens. Step back completely. What haven't we considered?
The Question
What assumptions have we been making? What alternatives haven't we explored? What's still not right?
Prompts
- What alternative approaches exist that we haven't considered?
- What are we not even thinking about?
- Could this be simpler? Could it be even simpler than that?
- What would we do differently if we started fresh?
Process
Forget the previous lenses. Look at the code with completely fresh eyes. What stands out? What feels off but you can't name? What would you change if there were no constraints?
Your Turn
After applying this lens, take your own turn. What do YOU think could be better? What did the lenses miss?
