> …how it all worked…

Refers to building systems in general. How do you build a solution to a problem? This is a skill, and it is learned and taught.

> …don't build models…

Refers to mental modelling, correct. I don't do that until I have broken the problem down into mentally tangible pieces, and then – only to accommodate for the particular tool that I'll be using – i.e a programming language/famework/hardware of this kind or another.



Those terms were just examples. Anyway, thanks for having a go at clarifying.
