Either you don't have some very minimal reputation in the network (I don't know, 100 points?), which limitation is there, I think, do protect from bots and similar abuse, or the question was *locked* for other reason than just being a duplicate. You could still open a question on meta to discuss that.

I don't even want to defend SO, I'm just frustrated by how terribly bad the arguments criticizing SO are.
