It is one reason why I did that. The underlying reason is that a person who
would even invest the time to post something *readable* does not deserve to
read as answer anything else except advice how to do just that.
Good answers, which require a corresponding amount of free time by the
person writing them, are to be deserved by posting smart questions, i. e. by
investing a considerable amount of free time for trying to answer them by
oneself, and then put them in proper words if that did not work, before they
are posted. Who thinks they could save all their free time by just posting
questions to others should not be surprised if the latter people are not
willing to invest any of their free time for the answer that the questioner
meant to save. Quid pro quo.

As others pointed out later, apparently “Twayne” is anything but a newbie.
Please do not feed the troll, then.
