I read once that if you’re trying to get some creativity juices flowing, removing unnecessary details will allow for more abstract thought. Like “write a story about an ogre” would lead to very different stories than “write a story about an ogre doing pushups”, even if the latter is probably arguably more funny.

So that was my thinking here about being a bit vague, I was specifically talking about tankless water heaters which got us on the subject though.

    Oh I totally get you, and it leads to more interesting perspectives and discussion for sure. I don't mean to insult your question by calling it vague - the person was just saying they didn't know what to believe among multiple answers and who was right, and I was pointing out that a vague question has multiple different answers. Didn't mean it to come off as insulting your question.
