My comment was largely due to the fact that the question you asked was too general, and doesn't really match with the specific question you wanted an answer for - saying that obscure-technical-term is/isn't in general use with a specific community is very different from asking whether "some bad grammar" is valid.

@AIQ Totally have to disagree with you there - if a particular phrase is "extremely unusual" then it should be called out as such. Something having a different name is a rather different scenario, but this is conflating the two.

drop-down-menu is a specific term for a specific item, so rather different from most questions, and nothing to do with a question about rudeness.

You are asking them to prove a negative - that is logically impossible!

I didn't say it was a good thing to do, I said that the current system encourages it

For a new user, it can be very hard to gain reputation points, so getting in first-and-fast is an important tool for those users.
