What's exploratory programming though? Unless you're writing something that's very similar to something you've written before and understand it well, most programming involves a lot of exploration.

Well, UX prototypes for one. In research, most projects never go into production, those that do do so without researcher code. Heck, even in a product team, if you are taking lots of technology risks in a project, you are going to want to work those out before production (and it isn’t uncommon to can the project because they can’t be worked out).
