And again you assume.
First you assume about forcing. Why do we have "readmore" tags? maybe so we do not force people to read through / load large swath of code/speech.
Second you assume that one can only offer unrequested help out of arrogance.
Either you believe everyone else has this kind of attitude toward helping others and then your world view must be quite bleak or you are just projecting your own behavior onto others, assuming they think like you.
Even if your understanding is not perfect and your time limited, a short explanation and maybe a link to more reliable sources is better than nothing.
TL;DR
People could benefit more from your skills if you gave even the shortest explanation.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
