//I was recently having some problems with iTunes, and decided to
reinstall macOS Sierra. I held Command+R on startup and clicked on
"Reinstall macOS" without erasing the hard drive in Disk Utility. Once
the reinstall was complete, I started back up and all of my files and
programs were still there, along with my settings, desktop wallpaper,
and everything else. (The iTunes problems were fixed.)//
What exactly does this "Reinstall" feature do, if it doesn't remove
programs and change settings to default?//

How would YOU have answered the OP's question?
What was wrong/inappropriate with asking this question on the ASC forums?
This has been covered. You repeatedly ask both products and developers and
imply they are doing improper things with little or no evidence. This is
deemed inappropriate.
What - in detail - was "inappropriate" in my question?
I do not recall all the details -- but we have talked about this before: you
go there asking about apps / developers and suggesting they might be doing
wrong when there is absolutely no evidence they are. This is not even about
Apple software but third party software which is not relevant for the site.
You do this over and over even when asked by them not to. Other than killing
your account how could they have gotten you to stop?
I'm talking about the question posed THIS WEEK!
Was it a part of a pattern of exaggerated and inappropriate concern you have
expressed there?
I'm deadly serious in this quest, Snit.
Can you identify anything controversial?
I've asked *WHY* in a new thread in ACW.
For what conceivable reason was the question removed?
Not sure what you are asking about being removed... something in ACW? Not
possible.
Perhaps someone else will explain if you cannot understand what has been
written so very clearly. <sigh>
The question on the Apple forum... you posted the reasons why. Surely you do
not mean that, do you?
