I don't think anything is ever really thrown away. An author may find that their original conception of something isn't workable but there is still likely to b a kernel of an idea that can be remolded like clay being reformed into a new shape if the hoped for form doesn't work. For example Herman Melville had a character named Bulkington I understand and he didn't work as the main character of Moby Dick and is washed overboard one night. Instead Capt. Ahab takes the stage.
