This is btw. a phenomenon I often see in creative people: Just because you thought long and hard about topic X while doing your work doesn't mean topic X is well preseved in the final result of your work (outside of your own memories). The harsh truth is that only if the final result says what you wanted to say in terms of that topic, your considerations and reflection on that topic "count". I am not saying that it is all about the result, because how many corpses you produced on your way there still makes a difference — but yeah in the end you will be judged by the final result.
