This is true but also where wisdom comes in. It should be OK to spend 5 seconds saying, "I saw X, is it OK for me to fix it?", which allows people to know of a problem they might not know and also for management to say, "Don't bother, we are going to replace that next month".
As a more experienced engineer, I am more accustomed to what is reasonable to "just go and fix" and what needs dicussion.
I have devs who sometimes spend 2 or 3 days+ doing something that could have been done much quicker if they had discussed what they planned first instead of trying to be helpful!

My experience is that you might get suggestions that are nowhere near how you planned to do it and it wrecks your mental picture of how it should be done. Discussions ofent lead to backseat development.
