I voted to archive this since it is from 2015, hasn't had an answer which is usuable since 2018, and then now it seems like a honeypot for low quality answers. In addition, this is one of those "grey area" questions. I could probably find more which needs a forced answer, or archival if this is anything to go by.

I opted for archival here as well - the answer quality is poor, and the OP did not provide sufficient detail. This one may be contentious, feel free to say why I'm wrong if you believe I was.
