However,  when Christians say "what would Jesus do?" they are asking what 
their  idealized vision of their founder would do (seen through 21st 
century eyes  and expectations).
I think Buddhists do the same when they want to  "de-evolve" back to the 
teachings of the founder.

I don't think that sticking close to what the suttas say results in an  
idealized vision of what the Buddha taught.
