I'm the same, as I keep telling to my coworkers and internal customers. Just give me a long list of bugs to fix and I'll be happy. But given a completely new project I get into analysis paralysis for several hours/days, researching alternatives etc. I am much better at adding new features to existing code. The constraints are much better defined. I also always strive for perfect backwards compatibility if possible, which is both great for the users (since they have to do nothing, upgrading just works) and also great for me, since it's another set of interesting and challenging constraints to work against. I got slightly better in getting out of analysis paralysis by doing Advent of Code in real time. This forced me to start writing code, fast. I think the effect has worn off by now though.
