So after reading the linked "
future of CW" article, I don't
think this idea goes against it. It's not using CW as a way to squeeze "just for fun" questions through like "Coolest Server Names". And it's not a “Quick Fix”, as these aren't to replace "on-topic and useful" questions "that would be ok if they didn't give points". It's a way to provide useful answers to questions that are off topic normally.
