"Unknown unknowns" - often about oddball limitations of the codebase or it's dependencies - limit my ability to enumerate what I don't know, and planning is often used as an excuse to get trapped in analysis paralysis (by myself included!) Which isn't to say there's not plenty of room for inquery, questions, and planning, but don't underestimate the value of bulldozing through problems. (That said, this has caused me to step on the toes of fellow contributors to a project without realizing it.)
