I identify with this very strongly. It’s even stronger for me if the distance I have to travel is already ‘extra’: e.g. if I forget my train ticket I’d rather take a much slower bus than spend ten minutes walking back to the house because the latter I feel as intensely frustrating.
Its interesting because you don’t just feel it at the point of being about to retrace your steps: you’re aware of it as part of journey planning.
