thoughts [don’t] end up growing better than they would otherwise by being nurtured and midwifed? Thoughts grow better by being intelligently attacked.
I think both are true, depending on the stage of development the thought is at. If the thought is not very fleshed out yet, it grows better by being nurtured and midwifed (see e.g. here). If the thought is relatively mature, it grows best by being intelligently attacked. I predict Duncan will agree.
