My hot take: the team I'm on is prone to extreme bikeshedding so sometimes I just go "lone wolf" on my work items to get a minimum working version out. The team then gives a lot of feedback (which is great) but would be insurmountable if I asked those questions upfront.

If not, you'll be told "you need to talk more during meetings." When you do, and speak up, and say "well I don't agree with our approach but clearly I am outranked/outvoted and I'll happily do as I'm told because we need to ship", everyone freaks out. I can handle being the subordinate when I'm getting paid, I just hate phony power relationships where I'm expected to verbally affirm everyone.
