Unfortunately, for non-computational peers and reviewers, "high-throughput" is often a synonym for "fishing expedition". This perception is gradually changing, though.
Furthermore high-throughput assays are more expensive so people often cut corners on sample size.
I see the only scientifically defensible way forward is to do large, data-rich networks like Eric Schadt does them. Individual wet-bench work is good to use as prior data, but it's just a hint at a part of a large, complex system, and overly reductive approaches are going to completely miss the big picture.
