I very rarely accept hypothetical questions as-asked, because too often they're asked without nuance. In those cases I too tend to ask for particulars or set out different cases and possible reactions to said cases.

The rare time I do answer straightly a hypothetical question as-asked I seem to startle the asker. I get the feeling my motivations don't match those of a lot of other folks.
