Great observation! In my experience, too, there's a tradeoff between creativity and precise thinking. Namely creative people often have some inherent randomness built into their brains, and precision comes later with more effort; while always-precise thinkers are usually not the most creative. In my teams, I try to balance the two.

A related point is to not quickly dismiss an idea though it's wrong or unworkable, because a different version of it may be the best solution to the problem.
