No one wants to read and proceess others thoughts, even if they are great, if they are unpolished. There’s just too much out there. That being said, dumping your own thoughts unpolished into a document is great, and there’s rarely a reason not to do so publically as scooping is in practice incredibly rare, and usually done by convergent evolution not espionage. (e.g., the minimum viable code for my latest accepted cvpr submission was on github as well as up on my blog labelled “CVPR Equivariance” for over a year before I got it polished enough to actually submit, no one came anywhere close to scooping.
