Even though you can't find some answers you seek, I can't agree that the site is useless. Answers are provided by volunteers (like me) who select questions they can answer, and you won't find any claim that every question will be answered. Some questions can best be answered by a product's manufacturer, and others may not have any good answer.
Hope this is useful. Please don't forget to click the Accept This Answer button if you do accept it. My aim is to provide reliable helpful answers, not just a lot of them. See https://www.helpowl.com/profile/Odin.
