If everybody withheld comment until they knew the full story, nobody would post on Hacker News. Hell, people still don't know the full story of the Aaron Swartz court case, and yet you see an awful lot of folks willing to comment with the few tidbits they do know right now.

This is not a generic claim on all to withhold comment pending details. Nothing so general. What I am saying is if someone asks for help, particularly in so public a manner, it would be useful to assume by default that things are more complex than they seem.
