"Answers" that are better off as comments
Comments are available to you only because you're trusted to comment. You first need to learn to answer yourself, then judge others!!!

"Answers" that are better off as comments
An answer might say "Please, if you see this answer, flag it. If you can migrate it to a comment, do it. I don't have enough rep to comment yet." There is an 600-character limit on comments though, and not full Markdown format is supported. Also, problems with the voting system might arrise, i.e. votes = upvotes - downvotes. But what about neutral votes? So, a better formula would be votes = upvotes - downvotes * 2, or 0. But then, again, mods can't do such a thing continuously. This ends up as commenting, which is explicitly allowed at 50 rep.

User tries to do something forbidden by license. Is explaining why it's illegal an answer?
@7heo.tk Yet a few are actually paid for being protected by the law.

@7heo.tk I have read some licenses (mostly patent ones) that say "THIS SOFTWARE IS PROTECTED BY THE LAW" or something like that.

@Raystafarian I think that out of scope statement is pretty broad considering we have several great questions about licenseing.
