I dont have any evidence. These are just questions that dont fit into the QA section.
Many of the answers build up on the assumption of associated knowledge. It is difficult to set the right context in answering questions as people have different levels of knowledge. You can not learn simply by asking questions. The answers give you a lead, and then you must follow the lead by reading up on the subject. An easy way is to Google it.
