The main point is that good information is more valuable than money in finding a good solution to most problems in a short period of time. Sure, we can infer from the context answers that are likely right to most of those questions, but the OP saves a few Q&A iterations and probably coding cycles by providing a good problem specification up front (to say nothing of money).
