The other thing about "bad" ideas is this:

1) The public, reading about the idea doesn't know the full idea or the future plans.

2) The bad idea can allow a pivot into a good idea, once you have money and resources.

3) Impossible to predict the future and what will happen. Twitter is a good example of this (celebrity mention, mainstream media mention, civil uprisings, etc.)
