Since this is obviously open to individual answer, I will answer my reason. The structure of SE leads to it being much more toxic for causal use. There is a reason people always joke about their SE questioning being closed as a repeat of a question that doesn't even answer their question. The points on the site give powerusers a physical authority over those who do not poweruse.
That is to the say to the casual user asking a "good" question is very daunting, often because of arbitrary requirements in a community resistant to change. That is not to say there are not bad questions, there definitely are, but the definition is less rigid than the censors would lead you to believe.
