The diagram "Solving Problem Y with Means X to Make Customer Z Happy" that came to mind as I looked at this year's documents.
As for proposals like (2) that lack means, "How exactly are you going to do that?" I ask.
This is from [Unexplored is not an ideas contest.
On the other hand, I was thinking that (3) and (4) are neither Yes nor No.
Or a project without a customer.
(3) is "This method can solve this problem, I don't know if anyone would be happy with the solution."
(4) is a type of "this is what I am meant to do".
Basic research takes the form of (3) and (4)
