Since OSE assumes in general that any 'breakthrough' is merely incremental mash-up of existing knowhow - the best way to begin the development process of any technology is to perform exhaustive research on existing tools and their mechanisms. See sample analysis from the Ironworker machine. Otherwise, one risks 'reinventing the wheel' - the default practice of propriety research and development.
Is it really the default practice, if that seems wasteful? Yes, non-collaboratory business (BAU) is extremely wasteful. Wannabe monopolies do not publish their R&D openly - which means that development efforts in BAU enterprises such as universities or corporations start from the ground up - ie, reinvent the wheel - as opposed to building on a readily-accessible pool of knowledge.
