Jan 9, 2016 at 5:12 comment added bwDraco @random: That's precisely what historical locks are for. Reopening after editing and deleting are not the only options. I'd hate to lose useful answer content, even if the question itself is bad. This is one of those few bad questions that have answers with valuable information worth preserving.
Jan 9, 2016 at 5:08 comment added random Mod Closed is not synonymous with "this one is answered all we can, we'll leave it for now as a plaque" but more that it needs to be edited into scope, or deleted
Jan 9, 2016 at 3:02 comment added fixer1234 I agree that the question is too broad. However, deletion seems inappropriate if it got good, useful answers and was popular with the community. Sure, there are a lot of "it depends", but it isn't an infinite number of possibilities and a comprehensive/definitive answer isn't necessarily required. Were the answers bad advice? People vote to leave a question closed with the expectation that it will remain closed, not get deleted. So that shouldn't be considered justification, or an indication of community sentiment, for deletion. IMHO, it should be undeleted and remain closed/locked.

Jan 8, 2016 at 8:02 comment added Mokubai Mod I'm on the fence here. While it is a good question with high quality answers it is largely opinion based as it depends on where and how you hit the machine, what the materials of the case are made of (plastics could absorb more of the shock, steel would transmit the shock better), how secure the components are, whether you have a mechanical hard drive and so on. The only reason it wouldn't have been roomba'd was popularity and while it was popular it did not get any reopen votes which tells me that no one disagreed that it was off topic as being too broad.
