To be fair, there's a lot of people asking for help on X-Y problems in the programming world, especially on python, and often the fastest way to sort out someone's issue is to walk it back to the original problem X they were trying to solve.

Yeah, but if you don't have an XY problem, you have to spend a lot of your question pre-defending the "it's not an XY problem" stance and lordy ... is that frustrating.

There's a lot of people out there who are happy to tell you that you have an XY problem, but when you explain why it is not, ... crickets.

There's all the difference in the world between asking "why do you want to do that?" and "why would you want to do that?"
