This happens a lot mathematicians might have their favourite object they study like Category theory and then get hung up on categories of categories but might forget that many simple things aren't categories like the prime numbers under addition because 2 + 2 = 4 and that is not prime.

Not just programming or math, in physiology you have entire research groups worked up about a molecule that causes dementia and after decades of research realise that the story was a lot more complicated than that.

You can almost recognise a healthy mind by the lack of such dogma, just don't make it a rule that would defeat its purpose.
