Word for focusing on the details to the detriment of the whole? [duplicate]
How about myopic, which means short-sighted and therefore, both literally and figuratively not able to see the big picture?
Shortsighted, tunnel-vision, hyper-focused, myopic, or unimaginative can all apply to this. As well as detail-oriented, anal, drudgeon, or dullard.
How about "blinkered" (when a horse if forced to only see what is in front of them).
What about omphalocentric, i.e. navel-gazing?
