There are many who can only generate an idea, and likely another group that can't discover an idea but can test it, no matter who does what, progress can still be made.

Your stated inability above to see this is, not in a pejorative sense, stunning.
Yes, philosophy is lost on much of the modern world. Could we, should we, and how shall we get there, human will and curiosity shall lead the way.

Pessimism has it's place as does peer review.

I am always amazed by humans, one person knows one thing, another knows another and somehow progress is achieved. Like ants building a massive ant hill.
