The question:

https://superuser.com/questions/331125/why-would-moving-from-anything-microsoft-be-such-a-good-idea

According to @Random (who closed it) it was due to the likelyness of it 'solicit opinion, debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion'.

This is clearly not the case. I explicitly said (please, look at the first version if you want):

And please, I don't want, or need, any reasons why staying close to Microsoft would be a good idea.

This clearly eliminates any debate or opinion since the only valid answers is

1. A reason against any products with Microsoft-branding, or
2. Multiple reasons against any products with Microsoft-branding.

As you can see, the question in itself is not prone to causing any debate in any way from members who actually read the question.

EDIT: Was it due to the title of the question? Would it be appropriate naming it something along these lines:

'Why moving away from anything Microsoft would be such a good idéa', or

 

'Give me a list of arguments against anything Microsoft'
