I don't know that it makes people so much better thinkers as perhaps more complete thinkers. It really depends on how many angles you approach something from.
In my line of work, we get a lot of "Can we do this?" questions. The answer to which is almost always yes, we can. What is often not thought of is the downstream effects, and SHOULD we do this. It's especially important when dealing with a large complex system like Epic, and then you have to take into account medical ethics, respecting patients and their privacy, organizational standards. The answer is often yes we can, but no we shouldn't and here's why. .
