All the comments have helped.
And, probably, most of all, reading Richard Feynman.
He could always tell what the answer was going to look like, and could explain why.
He would ask questions in the neighborhood of the problem.
He knew it was impossible for his team to obey a bunch of rules unless they understood how things worked.
He understood un-understandable.
He knew things from instinct and experience.
He refused to participate in multidisciplinary dialogue. ( A great problem for me, and why I'm learning to walk away.
He made phenomenological adjustments to constants.
When he chose not to buckle down to the System, he was prepared to pay the consequences if it didn't work.
He explained what he was doing.
He published things whichever way they came out.
He published 'all' the results.
He repeated experiments of others.
Then he'd know any real differences.
He could solve $billion arguments with a glass of ice-water and a rubber o-ring.
