Boffins coming up with a magical new solution to a problem that they somehow know will 100% work despite having done zero experimentation or testing.
"There's no time! We'll test it in the field!"
One plot point I liked of Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. The Tolmekians are growing a Warrior. Enemies are on the way. Their princess orders them to unleash the Warrior. Her second says it’s not ready. She ignores him, it’s sent out. It’s not ready, and melts almost immediately.
This is so common to see anywhere - media, movies... It's the libertarian "self-made man" myth I guess.
