I like #4, but I have found less cases of people asking too many questions, than not asking enough. I have found that, depending on the situation, junior developers feel too intimated to ask questions, especially early on in a position or project. So, as a senior dev, I make it a regular occurrence to reach out to junior devs and see if they have any questions.

Definitely! I probably should have mentioned that, the problem is almost always not asking enough.
For a lot of folks, the 15-20 minute is more to put a CAP on their instinct to keep staring at it rather than to get them to look for longer.
