This seems to be a deep structure/surface structure in Chomsky's terms. I also find context indispensable to decoding all problems. Naturally, I privilege it as it's my MO, as well.

I'm the person you're training! I need to have it written down and I have to know the "why", too. But I also have to DO it.

Once upon a time, I used to be like you.

agh i'm exactly the same way. i get so confused unless i know WHY i'm doing something. don't just tell me to put something somewhere, tell me why it goes there.
and then you ask the big questions and they go "don't worry about that yet"

hope the training goes smoothly this week!
