I think that's exactly what they're implying. Use it to make a low effort disposable prototype, not scaffolding to expand from.

    But if you get the framing from the terrible prototype/draft, it can lead you into a bad direction. It is like the "Don't think of an Elephant". Once you see the "Elephant" you will struggle not to make something that looks more like an Elephant.

    True, but I see it more as a tool for a non-technical person to make a prototype of a user experience more than making a foundation for how a project will actually be built and designed from a code perspective. Like, when it comes to the actual implementation of said project, the developer(s) shouldn't even look at the prototype code. I envision, in this example, as it solely being a tool for non-technical people to express their ideas to the technical side of the operation.

    I agree with you though, that still has potential to pollute a project entirely, and we already have methods of creating requirements and documentation for projects so this isn't exactly the most useful thing ever.
