> someone who feels compelled to do good work. They feel a responsibility to make sure a task is completed as successfully as possible.

Just because someone feels compelled to do good work does not mean they actually take steps to do good work.

1) They might neither know how to nor know how to ask.

2) They might have a problem which is really hard for them to solve but really obvious for everyone else they know -- consequently they don't have anyone they can ask.

3) They might be deliriously sleep-deprived.

4) They might have no idea how priorities work.

5) They might be confused but too embarrassed to ask questions.

6) They might have fallen behind on their piece due to some normal reasons and then fallen into a spiral of anxiety.

7) They might be mis-judging how good their work is.
