Here are some guidelines [1]. I've answered your questions; have you read my post? Some people (eg. OP) merely point out the community is deviating from its focus. This is not necessarily a good or bad thing and it's not complaining rather

Humans produce sounds, lions produce sounds. Humans have mouths, lions have mouths. Where is the substantial difference between the two? Even conceptually, interpreters and compilers differ in certain aspects. For me, the most striking one
