Based of my several rounds of discussions about every features, non-tech people usually have several unknown unknows about their idea. Their requests are usually one sentence or one paragraph, and then to flesh it out requires several back and forth which usually start with “I didn’t think about that”.

It’s like how everyone has seen people draw, play music, or build an house. But when the time to do so, they’re hopeless to replicate it. Because what you see is just surface level.
