You delete your question, and maybe 2 or 3 years down the road forget entirely how you solved this exactly same issue, perhaps via obscure unintuitive script-foo. But if you mark your own question as duplicate, the answer is just a link away instead of trying to search online via obscure keywords that lead to entirely unrelated posts. True story, I had couple of my own questions which I marked as duplicate then came back looking for them. | |
