Where does it say Direct Answers are allowed in the rules?

Hero · Answer

Here's what the rules say: Always be sure to guide users to their answer rather than just giving it directly. We have zero tolerance for direct answers.

Line plot, right?

Hero · Answer

You started off giving the direct answer. I'm not going to argue with you about this. Here's also what the rules say: GUIDE THE USER TO THEIR ANSWER. In other words, make sure the user is doing some of the work.

Hero · Answer

What you never do is do all the work for them. They must be involved in the work or else your approach to helping them is improper.

Gdeinward · Answer

I thought so in the beginning, but I had people with  a smart score of 70 tell me otherwise. You can understand my confusion
