I think this only works if the presenter lived with the same problems the audience wants a fix for. A demo by an engineer who's too close to the solution is infinitely better than a demo by a sales rep who can't relate to the problem or its solution because the engineer at least understands what they're trying to fix.

Yeah that was the idea, knowing nothing is certainly better than knowing nothing about the product or the market.
