The expected value of extra documentation for a possible lawsuit is lower than the expected return on just carrying out the business plan with the same resources. That is, it's almost certainly a waste of time.

Absolutely not. In fact, it is standard practice in most laboratories to have a research notebook that documents such things for patent purposes. This is relatively easy to do, and isn't much bother at all.
