This is absolutely true, but as a counterpoint, sometimes when you know nothing it's easier to kick off a struggle session and dig through the rubble to get an initial perspective. There's that old saying about how the easiest way to get accurate information about something online isn't to ask someone (cause you'll get ignored/made fun of), but to say something you know is wrong and watch everyone dogpile and tell you how and why you're wrong.

I guess what I'm saying is that OP should have been even more inflammatory lol
