yes. in a corporate context, i've see this same thing happen in a research group which was very "vision driven."
the prevailing belief (at the top) was that the group could just implement a bare bones, buggy, semi-documented version of the visionary's idea and simply "hand off" the whole project to another group which could then "realize value" from it.
but it never worked out that way.
the receiving groups didn't want to spend the time learning about it, setting it up, working around bugs and deficiencies and asking the research group questions about their vision-implementation.
in short, the receiving groups never believed in the vision group's implementation enough to invest their time and attention.
