Huh, you know, that sounds just like how dimensional analysis affects people sometimes. I've certainly seen some take a pile of engineering inputs and whack them together until the units work (myself included); it's a shockingly powerful heuristic for linear systems, since you'll typically only be off by some logical scaling factor. Of course, there's a bajillion ways it can deceive, so it's wise to be thorough.
