Why do you ask a question only to argue individually with every single person that tries to help you?

Why do 90% of the people on the thread not respond to the question that was asked (how to estimate the incremental burn of several hours of light housework over a sedentary baseline), but instead hi-jack the thread into a debate over whether physical activity that doesn't take place in a gym burns any calories?
