I think that's true for 90% of patterns/problems in dev. Did you see that Prince of Persia post the other day? How the original creator came up with Shadow Man? Kind of resonates with what you are getting at in being obvious.

I embarrassingly have a 8 year old top StackOverflow post asking what a fluent interface was. Keeping in mind I'd been devving for 5+ years already at that point. It was just a "ahh F* yeah, that's obvious" moment.
