  • $\begingroup$ I understand that this question has been raised before but I am approaching it from a different angle (check the above link). As a new contributor, I am not allowed to add my answer to the question raised before because I do not have enough reputation!! so from where I am supposed to start, I do not know. my questions have been closed multiple times and there is always a reason for it! do we really need to be that strict? seriously? $\endgroup$
