I don’t know whether this is exactly what you meant by “missing insights”, but I’ve noticed that I use search way less than I should, in my own notes & resources as well as in web search engines.
In the case of my own notes, adding more SRS cards usually fixes this: if I’ve been actively learning cards on some concept, I often do remember that I have resources related to that concept I can check when it comes up.
In the case of the web… well, this is an ongoing process. There have been whole subdomains of my life where it hadn’t occurred to me that those are also things you can simply look up if you want. I’ve been trying to notice the moment where I realize I don’t know something, in order to trigger the “so I should Google it” action, but it takes time.
