hard disagree. When answering a “social media query” you do not *need* to validate it. If you can provide a link in support to your answer, that's a nice plus, but not a requirement. And people that do choose to provide a link (again: a choice; not an obligation) may do so from their list of bookmarks, which may require no googling at all.
You keep redressing “answering a social media query” as “Googling in the poster' behalf” when it's nothing like that.
