I don't think that is part of this process. It's certainly part of engineering, but not this side of creative problem solving. This is way off in the deep end. I guess it may be part of early phase 1 in the sense of immersing myself in the problem space, but often I don't know even know what problem I'm solving. Like, not really know it.

The moment of clarity is when the question is revealed and the answer is obvious. It's a real parting of the clouds moment.
