> If I decide to go out and code a prototype without asking anyone anything, where is the harm in that? You can criticize it after it is done. You could have done the same thing. And you can always throw it out.

I don't understand this point. Are you suggesting coding a prototype on your own time? Otherwise if everyone in a team is free to choose to code prototypes who gets the actual work done?
