The difference is (as before intimated) between "open this jar" and
"cook my meal", not between java/php/bash and C/C++.

Perhaps (gazes into crystal balls) the root is whether the admin who
posts here used to be a scientist or coder, or an office-ape (who will
need help finding the 'any' key through no fault of their own).  Trolls
and students who aren't administrators are a separate possibility.
