As an exercise at an STC seminar many years ago, the presenter led us in
an "group write" exercise to assemble the instructions for changing a
flat tire.  He used large post-it notes and a blank wall and called his
method "Off the Wall Organization" (the ancestor of DITA?).  I was the
one who saw that we were missing "Step One -- Stop the car!"

So, you're denying the venerable belief that technical writing is
truly like changing the tires on a moving vehicle?
