Comment on Why do so many UK electrical sockets have an on/off switch next to them?

  Yes, but what’s your point here? “Oh no, someone preserve us from… *checks notes* a group of subject matter experts!”?

  If that annoys you for some reason, you’d best not learn how the overwhelming majority of products and services see the light of day. Rage aplenty awaits.

    I didn’t have a point, I had a question. And it doesn’t annoy me, I just didn’t know why.

    Why are people giving me shit for asking a stupid question in the stupid questions community? Is there a supremely stupid questions community I should have asked instead?

      Your original question was answered by numerous people in the spirit of the community, so you have got best answers it can provide at the moment, but your follow-up comments suggest that you don’t think so.

      But I may have misjudged your intent, as looking further I can see you’ve been replying to comments individually. My initial impression was that you were masquerading statements as questions. If I have that wrong, then my apologies.

        I was genuinely trying to understand.

  Yes. Welcome to the UK. You will need to adjust to small aggravations such as this. Good luck.
