You can provide a link to an answer but it's invariably not to the same question.

No, it is always the same question.

... from a person sitting in a very different situation with a slightly different problem.

Some times the question has no semblance at all. Other times the answer has no semblance at all. Some times there's no answer at all. And obviously, modern SO is full of people that will just post a ridiculously incorrect answer. There is a wide variety of possibilities!

I remember being very surprised as a I followed one of those links and got the answer I needed. But I don't remember exactly when.

I've had both happen a lot. Only the basic stuff gets a correct answer, because nuance is difficult even for the tech savvy.

At the very least it has some of the same words. And the person marking it as duplicate figured it was probably the same.
