I'm curious if you are speaking from research experience in this line or work.

It doesn't need to be from the research experience. Research is not a straight line from A to B. One has to form wrong hypotheses, discard them completely, improve upon them, etc. Some paths are from A are MORALLY forbidden from pursuing.
Misread as "MORALLY forbidden from pruning", which ... still works, I guess?
