> I distinctly recall trying to limit my questioning to daily stand-up

If you are doing anything scrum-like, the daily standup is the worst time for a junior to ask questions, except if it's "I'm stuck with X, who can I ask after the standup about it?" (but that type of question is better done in a team chat, if you ask me).

The standup is meant to identify impediments and blocked issues, not time for technical questions. The standing up part is to make everybody uncomfortable if it's dragging on to long.

Now, I don't expect a junior developer to know this, but a scrum master (or in its absence, a team lead or more senior developer) should really have told you about it, and gave you instruction for a better time to ask such questions.
