    No. Some questions bear repeating because:

    Users have a tendency to delete their accounts, taking their posts with them including what they asked.

    Newer users and even frequent ones, can’t be bothered to comb through pages and pages of previously asked questions. Plus, it’s gravedigging old posts.

    Restricting questions would just be too limiting, however, there are reasons some questions should not be asked and that falls in line to the rules of the sidebar that get constantly ignored.
