I saw something to the effect that many studies showed that when forced
to produce a running verbal commentary of solving a given puzzle, they

Forcing a person to keep a commentary of what they're doing moves it
into a completely different part of the brain, and it would go from
"possibly irrelevant" to "completely futile".
But, as stated, what matters is less the solution, and more the approach
the employee takes, as that shows more of the personality.

But most people don't "think" with a running verbal commentary for
