Yep. Hence why I have no issues googling most puzzle solutions. Occasionally I'll run into a decent one that isn't just legwork, and then I might engage if it looks cool. But most puzzle content has no actual mental challenge to it. There's only one "right way" to proceed efficiently to the answer, and that method is obvious if you've run into that style of puzzle before.
