I'm a little unclear about the intent of this stack - I've only just come across it.

Is it suitable for "I have this situation which I'd like to optimise, and I don't know whether there's an algorithm to calculating/constructing the optimal solution?" type questions.

i.e. if TSP wasn't a known problem would "how do I optimise <description of TSP>" be on-topic here?

Yes, we are open to "what flavor problem is this" and "what algorithms are applicable here" questions.

In addition to @prubin's direct answer, this Page gives a detailed description of what's on-topic. (didn't know these pages existed! 🤦‍♂️)
