My concept of 'too broad a scope' up until recently pretty much amounted to  "How do I setup Ubuntu server and then, and then, and then...." My understanding is that such a question should actually be two or three questions as there are separate topics involved. I also previously understood the line in the FAQ that says:

> If you can imagine an entire book that answers your question, you're asking too much.

However recently I have noticed some users take a more radical approach to this. Questions such as the ones below have been questioned as being too broad.

Examples:<br>
http://askubuntu.com/questions/272411/what-is-apt-and-what-are-its-uses<br>
http://askubuntu.com/questions/236381/what-is-apparmor

I feel that neither question (even the borderline apt one) is too broad. Neither is asking for a book to be written in response. Both are focused on specific technologies shipped with Ubuntu. All 10 apt-* commands available are pulled by the installation of ONE software package, for example.
