It seems like a flavour of the rubber duck method; by trying to explain it to a third party, you think about it in a different way and find a solution.
Trust me bro(ette): Rubber duck is the SHIT.
I don’t even program save for a few rare instances, but any complex issue where you just know something is wrong but can’t quite put your finger on it? It works miracles. A lot better tbf if you are actually explaining it to someone who can ask questions, but any object that you can look at is a good substitute.

Never heard the term but I often do it intuitively

My cat is my rubber duck. I get some weird looks from her.
