Sometimes there is a lot of pressure to get started due to financial or legal reasons but that doesn't mean you cannot plan as you execute. I've been in a few projects where the team know the basics of how to begin so I've had to let them start work while we plan in parallel.

Nicely said! You create a "core plan" with your core team (or sometimes on your own) and then you keep planning with the rolling wave.
