I’ve just cross-posted Elizabeth’s post on “Butterfly Ideas,” which I really like and which I think discusses related topics:
“Sometimes talking with my friends is like intellectual combat, which is great. I am glad I have such strong cognitive warriors on my side. But not all ideas are ready for intellectual combat. If I don’t get my friend on board with this, some of them will crush an idea before it gets a chance to develop, which feels awful and can kill off promising avenues of investigation.”

I like that post a lot! The people I tend to share early stages ideas are ones that try to make it better / understand it more or something.
