I entirely disagree. A basic question is a basic question, regardless of the expertise of the answerer. Further, spoonfeeding answers to basic question is damaging.
1) It damages the site, as a site such as this swamped with basic questions, will be avoided by experts.
2) It damages the asker of the question, because if they learn how to research, they'll gradually pick up the skills required to work in this industry.
3) It dilutes the useful content of the site
4) It is unfair on those who do study, and have paid for training course to gain new skills.

Funnily enough, this site used to be unrestricted when it came to basic questions. The result was not pretty. Experience taught us to be much tighter over what is permitted, with a commitment improvement of overall content quality. That's a matter of fact and experience.
