Leaving aside the sheer 'elegance' of such comment, maybe when someone like Paul makes an effort to come up with some out-of-the-box thinking , is worth listening.

Paul's idea may not be viable/new/sustainable as it is, but if one thing I have learned is that there is often "value in madness". And I have seen many, many times businesses built on some idea that everybody was dismissing as silly or impractical at the beginning.

Of course most mad ideas turn out to be actually mad - but encouraging open thinking will turn out the right ideas. Dismissing ideas too fast, won't help.
