Hmmm. Maybe there’s something in here about the difference between “Double-Crux-like” and “formal Double Crux”? On reflection, after you said you’re more certain Double Crux is low-utility, I was maybe imagining that this was because you saw the formal Double Crux framework as brittle or overly constraining, whereas you might agree that somebody adhering to the “spirit” of Double Crux (which could also be fairly labeled the spirit of inquiry or the spirit of cooperative disagreement or the spirit of impartial investigation and truth-seeking, because it’s the thing that generated Double Crux and not something that’s owned by the named technique) would be more likely to make progress than someone not adhering to said spirit.
