How?

It had two main parts. The first part pointed out to the OP the clues
that he should have used to realize that some other forum would be a
more appropriate one for his question. The second part identified c.u.p
as that more appropriate forum. Would you have left out the first part?
It seems to me that it's important for people to understand how easy it
is to determine that c.u.p is a more appropriate forum than this one for
questions like this one.
