It's interesting how frustrating it can feel to backtrack, even when it's the right move I definitely have felt this too. Also, in the past I've done interactive maps and charts for different media organizations, and people would often debate for a considerable amount of time whether to, for example, make a bar or line chart (the actual questions and visualizations themselves were usually more sophisticated). I remember occasionally suggesting prototyping both options and trying them out, and intuitively that usually struck people as impractical, even though it would often take less time than the discussions and yield more concrete results.
