Sure it works fine because you havent yet experienced how much better it can be. I encourage you to stop after the 'plan' part, read the plan, and tweak it. Have part 1 of the plan be it coming up with a framework to evaluate success, part 2 be it spitballing solutions, and part 3 be taking the best solution and "productionizing" it. You will get much tighter output and the brainstorming wont all muddy each others context as it tries different solutions. Bonus points for having part 2 fan out on its own, though thats much harder on shared hardware.
