I think that:
The examples that are currently given under the "See also" section are way too general and broad.
The examples on the related category page [1] are not fully representative of exploratory engineering (EE). They are all high level predictions which draw from many EE results and other assumptions.
Exploratory engineering can be much more focused and fundamental and with that more reliable.
I think a good example would be e.g. the paper "A Minimal Toolset for Positional Diamond Mechanosynthesis"[1]
The prototypical form of EE is the work done in "Nanosystems" [2][3].
A work for which the term exploratory engineering as far as I understand was invented.
The contents of this work are much more fundamental than the current examples on wikipedia.
(error rates, friction levels, power densities, ...)
