@TomWijsman if it's not obvious, then the question might not be voted to be closed :) In your example, if the OP would like to know this information to make a decision, they would probably state it in the question, and even if not, provided the question is worded correctly, I could see a potential of helping others. I see none of that in why-doesnt-windows-command-prompt-still-support-ctrl-v

@MatthijsWessels The thing is, if you wanted to rebuild powershell, I'd assume the question would be a lot different (more detailed, more technical, more focused, or on the other side more theoretical, more general) if existing at all... The question as is it now won't help much rebuilding anything, and the comments about .Net breaking stuff, or the OP's opinion about "every time I press ^v I think it's high time someone changed this", leave little doubt about the intent.
