@ankii Well, if I played devil's advocate, I'd say that 99.9% of users who visit this site are probably not Apple power users, and that probably 75% of regular users aren't either. And that's okay, because that's what we're here for - to help the masses who aren't. :)

@bmike for the [How to free up space on Macbook Air for iOS update By keeping files only in iCloud](https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/374823/) question, I first voted to close as dupe of eating my storage question, then OP updated it, I removed the comment and forgot to retract the vote. I then linked 265184. fsb saw it in review queue, voted to close so either auto comment happened or he consciously voted.
Then Monomeeth closed it but chose unclear, you opened it and mistakenly pinged fsb for commenting 265184.

I am surprised that there was no such question before
