Gary: Examining the XY Problem.
Definition on Wikipedia
The XY problem is a communication problem encountered in help desk and similar situations in which the real issue, X, of the person asking for help is obscured, because instead of asking directly about issue X, they ask how to solve a secondary issue, Y, which they believe will allow them to resolve issue X.
Leo: How do you ask a good question? Be systematic (when troubleshooting). Problem solving is hard. 🙂
