'Guy who thinks like Claude': dev's step-by-step feature rant nails Claude's reasoning style

A developer jokes about a coworker who "thinks like Claude": breaking a tiny feature into a chain of obvious steps — past the gate, the unlit lamp behind it, but the gate is still closed so open it first — before asking how to light the lamp. The thread perfectly captures Claude's deliberate, over-decomposed conversational style, striking a chord in the AI community.
