I think that it prevents the author from taking a look at OOo. Instead
of asking him a question, and possibly encouraging him to look into
OOo, you are giving him an answer to a question that nobody asked.
What will he do with that?

If you give him one item, then he has one more page. If you interest
him in OOo, then he will have hundreds of new pages. I think that
there is an expression about teaching a man to fish that is relevant
here.

If you want to write all that author's OOo content, be my guest. My
intention was to get him to take an interest in OOo and write about
it, not to have him publish your writings.
