    Essentially, the answer to your question lies in how every tool in the world works. For example, houses were built for people before we had electricity and power tools; however, not using power tools when building a house now is silly. If I walked up to them, took away their power tool and told them 'How did people build houses 500 years ago if a power tool is necessary?", then I could expect some serious backlash.

    That doesn't make any sense. The ToS doesn't say anything in regards to allowing SE/CM from talking to us.

    Your housing analogy is empty as, at least in the US, there are people still building houses without power tools, they've been doing it for 200 years now. We call them the Amish, and they've had a hate on modern technology since modern technology has been a thing. And yet they are living in nicely built homes the likes of which I wish modern contractors would take notes from...

    Yes, I agree houses can be built without power tools. That is, in fact, my entire argument. That doesn't mean that people should be prevented from building a house with a power tool.
