Starting something you couldn't finishFinnbar says: I used to know a guy who tattooed LOVE across his left knuckles, but didn't tattoo HATE on the other knuckles because he was right-handed and realised he couldn't finish. Ever run out of skills or inspiration halfway through a job?

A null hypothesis...... ah, if only.
I suppose that you could write a paper along the lines of, "Well, claim P would seem to have a certain prima facie plausibility, on the basis of a, b and c. But it doesn't after all, becasue of x, y and z."
But then, unless you've got evidence that someone sane actually does think that P, it'd seem just to be verbiage - and any reviewer worth their salt'd reject it quickly and brutally.

Sore point, that.I've just had to defer my research leave for six months.
On the upside, this means it's now in the spring/ summer, with a possible autumn/ winter extension, rather than autumn/ winter with possible spring/ summer... but all the same...
