I preface mine with "In the words of the great philosopher Yankovic, I am going to dare to be stupid ..."
Partially, because in IT -- seemingly more than in other industries -- variations of the phrase "Why haven't you just ..." arise, "just" being that magical simplifier which compacts all complexity into a single and obvious step, and often come with some measure of "why haven't the boffin pressed the button, I told the boffin that the button needs to be pressed" attitude, and I do not want to do that to someone else.
The other portion of it is being the rubber duck, quack quack.
