Where does the idea that Forums are for posting feedback to SE come from?

I feel like that's pretty vague and probably more relates to the support sections of the Forum. For example, the "Lore" section or "New Player Help" section wouldn't make sense for posting "suggestions". General Discussion is for General Discussion, not suggestions. The role threads are for, as stated here - https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...ealer-Roles%21

You can feel like it's vague if you want I guess, but it's where the game tells you to come leave feedback, and the stickied post in this subforum says the same as well. General Discussion is literally for suggestions and feedback on the game.
