I think there is a universal human desire to try to avoid looking stupid.
I wonder sometimes if people are afraid that asking a simple question will
make them look stupid.

This can then lead to questions with extra layers of pontification and
obfuscation and passive voice and intransigence and XY questions.

The problem with this is that it just makes it so much more difficult to
help, and generates long confusing threads, and wading through all this is
a less pleasant experience for everyone than just answering a simple
question.

The question could have been something like: "I want to learn about using
regular expressions for manual text editing. I'm thinking to use Kate,
Kwrite or KatePart.  Does it matter which of those I use?"

Answer: No.
