As a frequent asker in other areas online, the type of 'answer' that tells me I should do it this other way instead because 'it's better' is my least favorite type of answer.
Extra info is great, especially if it truly is a better way, but at the very least if you are going to put the effort into replying I want an actual answer to my actual question to be able to learn from.
