So what happens if someone suggests an idea but changes his/her mind later and wants to implement it after all?

Perhaps it would be better to just ask people for ideas that they are willing to share -- without any implication/suggestion as to whether they plan to implement it?

They are forced to build a better, more useful, competitive product so that they, their investors, and customers all benefit.

I mean the people who used the suggestion would be upset because it seems that the person suggesting it said he would not pursue it.

Why? Discussion is supposed to change one's mind about its subject.

You discuss ideas with partners, not with potential competitors :)
