Yeah, I've seen that and have Thoughts about it, too.
As someone who LOVES to give advice, I feel like I am coming from a "Let me chew on this juicy problem that doesn't have any emotional investment or shame on my part" and that ain't exactly dandy, either. I would do better to play puzzle video games, as it gets me the serotonin without being a dick to people I care about. I try very hard to rein that back with occasional success.
I have some friends who will directly SAY they don't want input and oh MAN, do I love that. It makes it EASY.
