You clearly never worked in a corporate environment.

What on earth are you talking about? There's the concept of a Spike in agile software development which is used in corporate environments for exploring potential solutions, including my own. I recently completed one to judge the feasibility of a project and to help us estimate the time the project would take to complete before we ended up wasting resources pursuing something that would only lead to a dead end.
