Not unless the question is meant to be objective. If you're asking my opinion, I will happily give it. However, if it's a serious debate, you better believe everything I say will have citable backup.

There are 2 kinds of questions here: factual & opinionated. The basic premise of a factual question is that you report the truth as well as you know it or can back it up with corroborating info. If you post a wrong factual answer may be grounds to get down rated in points but there really are no grounds for opinion since everyone's opinions count since this site is run upon democratic principals, not an oligarchy or dictatorship. Sure I can give up to -5 points & a newcomer can give only -1. But even that -1 causes my percentage rating to go down just as much as a -5 would. My nickname should be tangent-man. I just realize how far I veered from the original question. I remain 100% objective with factual questions, no matter how ridiculous they may seem. It's actually fun finding these answers.

I don't think there is such a thing as a "factual" question. I am not strong on "factual" answers if that was intent of question. People can find facts easily on the internet. Opinion and Humor to me are the fun of AB.
