I think that’s part of the point. Execution at its core is mastering the art of projection onto a lower dimensional space.

Taking anything from up in the mind out into the real world, be it a physical action, a speech, an artwork, requires you to make decisions about what’s load bearing and what’s not.

So the more practice you get translating your thoughts into words (or another medium), the better you get at executing.

The "another medium" is doing a lot there, I think the translation between my understanding and expressing it in words is the weakest aspect of software development at the moment, in addition to the entire physical world. Dancing about architecture, if you like.
