While perhaps true, I think the toxicity of many support boards, especially Stack Overflow, are part of the reason XY problems are pervasive. If you ask a question without presenting your best attempt at a solution, your question will be derided as lazy. If you ask a question presenting a poor solution (of course it's poor, you don't know how to do it), your question will be derided as wrongheaded. You're damned if you do and damned if you don't.
