What were the stories of HP calculators that never saw light of day, what were the known features, it’s place in the market and finally what were the future products that took advantage the “lost work”?

Well here is one known example, the HP-95C.

"The HP-95C was one of the later 90 series calculators meant to be introduced in 1977. After an initial production run of fifty or a hundred units (recollections vary), HP abandoned the model and it was never sold to the public. Most of the units were rounded up and destroyed but the one pictured below hid in a desk drawer at HP for twenty years before coming to the museum."
