Actually I agree with you - good point - I can see why being on the other end (i.e. as the answerer) can be really frustrating, especially as you said, your answer can be 'more' correct with greater detail etc.

As I said, my experience could very well be based on that I've only asked something like 5 questions on there, all very specific, which is really the kind of question perfectly suited for a site like that.
