In short: Yes.  As I've explained to you repeatedly over the last few days,
the ethic in every other group/online forum is: If you can't (or won't)
answer the question, then STFU.  Do not get in the way of others who can and
will.  As they say in the army, lead, follow, or get out of the way!

This method works very well and should be followed here.

See, the problem is that even *if* your intentions are pure (when you
"redirect" the questioner to a more "appropriate" group), which is highly
doubtful, BTW, the questioner never sees it that way.  Instead, all he sees
is you being a jerk.
