The first useful answer may be a validation plan

When an idea is early, a polished answer can create a false sense that the important work is finished. Often the most valuable output is not the recommendation. It is a plan for validating the assumptions underneath it.

What could we test cheaply? Which result would actually change the decision? Which risk cannot be resolved by more analysis?

I want systems that help move an idea from plausible to tested. Sometimes that means giving a less satisfying answer today and a much better question for tomorrow.

The purpose of the first answer is not always to close the decision. Sometimes it is to make the next piece of evidence obvious.
