We've taken great care to write our replies in a generic fashion where
possible, with the aim of collecting knowledge that others can profit
from (instead of asking the same question over and over again).

Not copying past answers, at least the last two years or so, would mean
we'd have to write all these answers again because the questions will
inevitably be asked.

I think it would be rather disrespectful to those who have invested a
lot of time into building a good body of knowledge in the old system to
say "let's throw away this content, main thing is we get a shiny new
system". And the alternative of having to keep the old system around in
a read-only fashion is not super attractive either.
