But you tell them how to disable and reenable their graphics driver, then xorg crashes, their problem isn’t solved and they give up. This question is “what is the problem you are trying to fix?”
That answer will help someone more than giving them an answer that won’t fix anything
Third time: by all means, ask the question AFTER a direct answer. A direct answer absolves any too-clever “X/Y problem” philosophizing. And obviously people would love to just not have the problems they’re trying to kludge.

What a dishonest reading of the chronology of this conversation.
And a hypocritical effort to make about us, instead of about the subject.
