Why do some people come out and ask yes/no questions in debate? When what they really thought they wanted was a poll?

Additionally, Should MFP enable the BBcode poll/survey thread option?

Edit: to fix add vs enable

    I want to know how Debate turned into Chit Chat II. One cesspool is enough.

    Nah. Debate is a cesspool with bigger teeth . . . just to mix a metaphor. ;)
