10. •By analysis is an anti-pattern, the state of overanalyzing
(or overthinking) a situation so that a decision or action is
never taken, in effect paralyzing the outcome. A decision
can be treated as overcomplicated with too many detailed
options so that a choice is never made rather than trying
something and changing if a major problem arises. A
person might be seeking the optimal or “perfect” solution
up front and fear making any decision that could lead to
erroneous results while on the way to a better solution.
