That's definitely the case!
Granted, I'm not the best at tidying in the physical realm. Didn't see the point of it at first - until I had the realization that it's kinda like managing the entropy of things by pointing your attention at them 🤪
Over here it's the opposite: if I've embedded a few sketchy assumptions and moot points just to reach a milestone (as was the case here), my focus just fails to latch in "forward", and I end up alt-tabbing editor<->doomscrolling all day 😪
