Yes. I've observed this behavior a lot, but haven't seen it articulated so well.
For what it's worth, I'd say I've always had the opposite instinct, of trying things without carefully following the tutorials. From either direction, I think there is definitely a sweet spot in terms of each type of learning/doing.

Thanks, Ben! Agreed regarding the sweet spot, and it's probably a little different for everyone.
See when I first started I was the same, tried things first until I got stuck. Not sure when that stopped.
