For me, the answer to the latter question is dead easy: we should be as bold as our imaginations will let us be. And we should work to stoke the fires of our imaginations as much as we can, because our ordinariness of vision is if not a professional deformation then at least a common handicap.

Simon was writing about publishing legal texts in his recent ed hoc column at Slaw. I think stoking the fires of our professional imagination can apply to everything.
