When the group dosnt know if they are designing a bridge, dam, HVAC system, transmission, or something else. Yes there are too many ways to go about it. To make matters worse, people prefer designing certain ones of those even though they may have info that could help the others from time to time.
The guy who likes to design dams says build one of them. The bridge designer wants to build a bridge. The HVAC engineer says something about that, and the guy who likes gears has that in mind. Before they have even started they are arguing about totally different things.
When the HVAC guy comes out and says Im building this, what do you think, there is a clear direction and everyone throws their 2 bits in the pot as opposed to threads like this where very little has been accomplished.

In the threads he has started where he says "here is what I have in mind" with a pretty concise focus things have gone well.
