Exactly what burden is on your team due to the Q&A responses? I'm really curious to know.

They need to be CLEAR with their rules and not contradict themselves. Unless there is some internal conflict or argument about this we're unaware of, there is no point to this.
Ask and ye shall receive ... it's happened before, and not always to the asking teams' likings.

I agree with Tom here that this situation is much like the real world. A company contracts out a specific task to be fullfilled by a contractor (e.g. make Widget X) yet doesn't even have its head around every nuance Widget X will go through, let alone what all of the individual design specifications for Widget X should be.

Cut the GDC a break. Just because you're afraid of being told "no" to your specific questions about welding doesn't mean you should obscure your questions in such a way that they're ambiguous or not clear in the first place.
