all those who indicate that professionalism (Nesrin, Schauen, Metzger, Evonymus, polyglot45, ...) includes knowing your limitations and observing them.

For this latter reason a reduced member limit would not be very useful. Instead deciding not to answer such questions seems to be the easiest way to go.

Maybe he/she simply works on a dictionary/glossary and wants a second opinion on some terms?

Evonymus, it's more amusing to see so many people pretending to do Administrative and clerical procedures - just a free external inspectorate)
