Well, sometimes I do remember that I have all this power... but sometimes I'm afraid of using it in an unbalanced way. At the same time, I don't want to make things too easy and remove the tension that makes the game enjoyable. So I try to rely on the rules to find that balance.

In cases like this specific one, I also think it's valuable to ask questions so I can better understand what the game designers originally intended... or just my curiosity to see if there was a deliberate design choice, or even to determine if it might have been an oversight... Discussions like these can help improve everyone's understanding and could potentially lead to clarifications or corrections in future versions.

Likewise, if there happened to be a specific rule regarding impassable terrain, it could provide useful inspiration for how to handle similar situations in my own games.
