As an engineer, I've just taken the manager's solution. Then I offer them my own but tell them that I won't know if it works. Let's do yours first. I already know that theirs will fail. So I work on both mine and theirs. Once they start seeing the failure, I just tell them mine is ready to go before you speak with your boss. They say go ahead at that point. I do. The boss eventually stops giving ideas or let's me do as they hired me to do.

This is actually genius psychology. Props to you for having that kind of patience and forethought.
