It seems really absurd that anyone would encourage or even force employees to burn more money to see if maybe something works.

Why? This is literally what experimentation and prototyping is!

You spend money for a potential benefit. In this case it’s also a one off cost to find things that can save money over time.

One thing is to invest R&D money with a strategy and another to force people to burn as much money as possible to see what happens.
