I do this, because I like dumb solutions. This, along with challenging assumptions, is basically how I debug. I love git bisect, a lot of people don't even know it's there. I'll note that, when pair programming, the people who sit and reason about the code often outperform me, so the way I look at it I'm trading time against complexity.
