well, I hear you.
but your anology doesnt' apply very well, not at all actually.
It would if a person didn't know how to go digging on a group site for a

it's not like I need to learn how to go digging for something on a group
site.
and............the poster has that info .....he knows where he put it, and
it's one simple step to put the link in his post.

it's also a matter of consideration, a little known concept sometimes,
apparently !
