Comment on Why does Dairy Queen sell food?
entwine413@lemm.ee 1 day agoThat’s not an answer to why, though. Only selling something in the past doesn’t explain why they do it now. Making more money is the real explanation.

Why can just mean explain something that is unexpected. Which you did with the history lesson. It doesn’t have to answer causality.

The question “why” inherently requires reasoning as a response, though. If the answer had been, “DQs used to only serve ice cream, but the founder wanted to…” blah blah blah, that would be an answer.

I disagree with your premise.
Why?
It didn’t used to be, but that’s how it is now.

Doesn’t answer ‘why,’ though. ‘Why’ is asking for the reason it changed from only ice cream to ice cream and food.
You didn’t ask if DQ had changed from ice cream only to ice cream and food. You knew the answer to that. You were asking for the reason they made the change.
