Avoid Problem Solving For Better Critiques

You can also call it a critical cognitive walkthrough.

"Problem solving in a critique is also a frequent occurrence. It seems to be a common trait of people who are involved in the design, development and overall creation of things, whether they be websites, products, services, or whatever. We can't help but try to solve problems. It's just the way our brains work. But in the context of a critique, problem solving and jumping to solutions can be detrimental for a number of reasons."
