The intentionality steps in when it is decided to keep or discard the outcome.

How can it be creative to destroy outcomes? Destruction is the opposite of creativity.

The creative process necessarily involves abandoning bad ideas and refining to something more intentional

Exactly. That is literally the only difference between "creative" and "non-creative" people.

But you can still be creative if you keep every outcome, it would be very hard to prove creativity if you discard everything. The one could argue you're creative the moment you select something.
