Yes, but I don't see it as a fundamental personality trait so much as a state of mind. The pragmatic mindset naturally simplifies, reduces, focuses, makes early judgement calls about what trains of thought are unlikely to yield results. The opposite of that is to be open and curious, to let thoughts expand and meander without any clear destination or utility and to see where those take you without assuming you know what is or isn't possible. That's where divergent imagination really gets going. Each mindset serves a purpose; it's beneficial to learn how to shift between them as needed.
