What if partially executed ideas have value? Idea = zero value Idea + Execution = much more than zero value If there is value in partial execution: Idea + Partial Execution = more than zero value Then Scott Adam's suggestion that idea creators who use his hypothetical service to start to assemble the resources required to execute (i.e. partially execute) should receive a minimal return makes some sense (he suggests 1% which may be too high). This can be true even if the eventual idea is many pivots from the original because the pivots are points on the same continuum of execution.
