My two cents: a good idea is 1, A great idea is also 1. It doesn’t mean jack till its usable.

So it would be more like - Good idea (1) x good execution(10) = 10 Great idea (1) x great execution (100) = 100

Ex: my great idea is that faster-than-light travel will REVOLUTIONIZE HUMANITY! Of course I’m an idea guy, so I cant be bothered with physics and engineering and special relativity and all that riff-raff. Let a specialized team figure that out. But hear me out - this is a BRILLIANT IDEA when finished. (That’ll be 100M seed funding, thank you very much.)
