As I wrote in a separate comment to someone who responded to me, there is a difference between:

  (a) thinking about, and deciding upon, what will be done, and 
  (b) the thinking that is required during implementation.

{type (a)} was always the majority of my time, but {type (b)} consumed a lot of effort, especially for languages or syntaxes I wasn't very familiar with. {type (b)} consumes very little of my time now.
