I already mentioned what Halmos' stance was. What I'm more interested in is how is it possible to work without examples.
The point I was trying to make is that it may not be necessary to have "a large stack of examples". It might instead be much more useful to have a couple of "protoypal concrete examples...a root example". Kontsevich seems to have similar thought patterns.
