How does it help all these other people who have questions and aren't engineers?
The risk here, I think, is elitism.
It helps them by framing their question in such a way that other trained people (who they are asking anyways) can understand. As it stands, their threads are convoluted and time consuming to understand. I for one, am not wasting my time trying to figure out what should be explained properly by the OP.
It's really not asking all that much to do a background patent search, explain the context for your idea, and any analysis you have or pictures of a working model.
Honestly, if you can do that then you really shouldn't be wasting peoples time posting here.
