No, it's not like that at all. IMO that analogy does not make any sense. First, r&d is not just thinking up stuff and then making them. In drug discovery it involves expensive trials. In other fields it may involve a lot of building and scraping things, sometimes from expensive material. Patent should be an incentive to do all that knowing that once that it's done it can monetized in a way that does not allow other companies just to copy and paste without effort. Should they be able to do it for everything and forever? Probably not and that is what I was referring to.

Theoretically yes, but it sounds like it requires more coding skills since you need to create the network structure by hand instead of relying on solutions that were specifically built for this. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing bad with what you described, but sounds to me OP needs a tool out of the box.

Is it though? One thing that comes back up again is the comparison to human learning. Do humans get clean training samples? I like to think not that. Instead humans learn how to separate signal from noise much better, and also learn how to model hidden causes.
