This is a similar issue faced at the level of Product Management (obviously a lot less granular). You have a client facing a challenge. There is an obvious, gold-plated solution. Now, you need to pick apart the challenge they face and how they intend to face it and look for the real root cause. The client may already know, and the identified solution may be the right one, but there are enough instances where they have overlooked the real problem that you can narrow down a product change to the smallest piece that achieves their desired outcome.
