Specifically, it's important to remember that, while the new idea may share its fundamental underpinnings with an older idea, the older idea also did/didn't work for specific reasons. Sometimes the "new" idea is actually the "old" idea with the big problems fixed, in which case I'd say there's a good chance the new version makes it further.
