Those posts are useless and potentially harmful.

I agree partly, but half an answer might be better and more useful than no answer if nobody is 100% sure.

It is a problem if someone says that they're sure but they really aren't. As long as the poster says that they're not sure, the asker can be wary of that and will have a place to start.
