This reminds of my undergrad. Linear Algebra Prof. who would write after doing proofs, quod erat demonstrandum, or Q.E.D.
Without proof, an idea is just a theory; one should not
just toss out a theory for lack of proof. One should try to prove or disprove it. Theories are good regardless if they are disproved later; knowledge is gained. Elimitating the unknown will being one closer to the known...
