My intuition is the opposite. I think a good question is valuable regardless of whether someone has a good answer for it. A good question is humbling.

This is definitely a chicken and an egg problem.

I think good questions are more rare than good answers. Questions are like honey and attract a lot of flies. Making a new kind of honey is hard.

For founders, ideally you want a good question, one only you recognize as honey, then you need the drive to answer it fully.

As an engineer - to me it's definitely a good question. Getting to a good question is half of the work.

For example in SpaceX it has been crucial to find the right question to ask and they ended with something like "How do we minimize dollars per kg of payload to LEO?" This has then sprung the whole strategy and a decade of work on reusable rockets.

There is no answer without question

The worth of an answer lies in the question itself.

From a good question you can get a good answer.

A good question! Because you will be able to get the right answer…

In my opinion, a good question is very important because answers keep changing according to people's perspective. Some people like one answer and some like another's.

I think you are on the right track. They are both important. An answer can be improved on with more information and revisions.

A good question is better in my opinion. It makes it so everyone is taken aback and wants to participate. A good answer, once you hear it you accept it and move on to the next thing.

Hi.

In my opinion, a good question matters more. A clear, carefully crafted, and well thought out question will harvest higher quality and meaningful information, especially when tactfully delivered. You want more detailed information to best prepare your next move.

Ask better questions if you want better answers.

Who asked you this and why, out of pure curiosity?
