error = true with no description or answer is basically ten years of searching stackoverflow and reddit threads for an answer.

Or a link to a thread on microsoft answers that 404s

that's the worst due to how microsoft answers redirects work making it impossible to go back to the previous page.

Honestly at this point if it's source available it's almost faster to dig through and find the affected module on source to determine behavior.

Unless of course it's just crazy abstracted, which can be an unintentional form of obfuscation when applied poorly.
