I think the reason Brigham Young wanted members to question what is presented to them is so they would understand the principles behind the doctrines and the rules.

I agree with this, but it may also be true that Brigham wanted members to question what is presented to them so they can recognize when their leaders are perhaps a little bit off the mark.
I think 99% of the time we would do well to follow our leaders with perfect exactness, but there are certain rare occasions when, because our leaders are fallible humans, we might be better off taking an alternative route.
