No one forces anyone to pay attention to an answer they don't like either. As far as "just answer"-- writing an answer takes work. You'd have to pay me a lot to mindlessly answer uninteresting queries that probably won't help you, like some meat based poor imitation of a search engine. It's not interesting, it's not fun, it doesn't foster building a community, it wouldn't help me expand my own knowledge. I'm of the view that when someone comes existing on a particular form of answer and not an interaction with a potential (future) peer, -- what they ought to be doing is hiring someone on Fiverr if its not an answer that they can extract from a search engine (or our benevolent AI overlords). Generally it's the person asking the question that wades into an environment with potential answers, they're the guest with the (minor) imposition of a question. I suppose my view is different with respect to rogue troubleshooters that swing in out of the blue with preachy answers to questions that were never asked. :P
