Nice try but giving me completely unrelated information out of the blue is not what is under discussion here. If you had corrected me grammar or something, I would have been thankful.

The biggest problem here is people treating others how they would be treated. That's right, the problem is people following the golden rule. People explain things because they themselves appreciate explanations. Maybe other people need to be more empathetic and understand that these explanations are coming from a good place.

When somebody says “please don't explain this to me again, because I know how to do it” and people explain it to them, that's clearly not following the Golden Rule.
