This is interesting because I think this happens because alot of the time the error isn't accurate or at the right level of abstraction. I'm wrestling one now where a variable deep in a library isn't defined, so the error message is, "cannot read property main of undefined". But the problem is quite obviously not that I have to submit a pr to the repo to add 'let var'.

But the other 50% of the time.. After a few hours I go back and read the original error message very slowly :-)
