Premature pre-emptive answers are no benefit to the site, so I [can’t] see any problem with them being downvoted if they don't answer the "final, clarified" question. If nothing else, this might discourage those hasty answerers from leaving what eventually amounts to "litter" on the site. FF >> Since Shoe asks for clarification (None of them seems right. Is this copied correctly? What is the context?), this question is obviously not suitable for ELU as it stands. And it's very basic. Answering it devalues the site. | |

"She gabbed without stop for what seemed like ages, but he went on driving those two hours, clenching his teeth." | |
