Y'all are not doing the snowflake memes any favour when you downvote someone for politely asking a question.

Agreed. Breadsmasher was polite--they acknowledged it could be a minefield of a question, explained what their fuzzy understanding was, and asked for clarification on what they got wrong, from someone who'd already shown a willingness to discuss the topic. I didn't take it as confrontational, rude, sea-lioning, or anything stressful.
