You're being downvoted because your comment doesn't contribute to the discussion. This is like when you ask a question about a product on Amazon and a bunch of verified purchasers get the notification and respond with "I don't know".

Honesty is important, making a pointless reply that does not contribute to anything is not. It is clearly a rhetorical question, meaning it does not require an answer, it was asked for dramatic effect and/or to make a point. So no you don't always need to answer when someone asks.

True but you don't have to add to the conversation that you have nothing to add to the conversation.
