Curiosity is no requirement of course, but at least an understanding of the limits of one's own knowledge and authority on a subject is desirable. Sometimes things other people do don't make sense to me, and seem like they could be improved. So I can: 1. Assume they are doing it wrong. 2. Assume they are doing it correctly for reasons I'm not privy to, at least by their own assessment, incentives and constraints, and dig no further. 3. Do #2, and then allow my curiosity to lead me to uncover their reasons and motivations. I don't like #1, but numbers 2 and 3 seem like reasonable choices.
