I frequently fall victim to this and I've gone through considerable effort not to. One example: at my previous job, our ecommerce site had individual templates for each product. We only had around 20 products, but I came from a job where you might have thousands of products, so a single template was used. I just couldn't wrap my head around why you would have individual templates for each product. The pages were mostly static (aside from a header and footer, and the pricing), and they took quite a while to make. Then I realized that because we had so few products, we could really customize and market each page to highlight the features of each product. I went on to build a personal site with only a handful of products the same way as well. Like Jason said, spending that extra time (even if it isn't literally 5 minutes) can really change your perception of something.
