Aug 29, 2016 at 8:06 comment added ilkkachu Except that the question said "why should they be" which is a trigger for opinion-based "colourful discussions". Edited a bit to make it less so. @Adam, do revert if you feel this is against your intention.

Make it a bit more about reasons for the usual state
Aug 29, 2016 at 8:01 comment added ilkkachu Are questions about historical reasons "opinion-based"? Looking back, there's likely some factual reason for why something happened. Even if it's just "because Mr. Grandhacker made it so", it's not up to the opinions of anyone answering the question now.
