I feel there might be a very interesting thought process going on in your second paragraph, but I cannot parse it. Would you mind explaining in a bit more detail on the link between articulation and answer? At face value, the formulation of a problem would definitely bear effect on the answer. I.e. what I ask determines the answer. And I would guess that information is naturally shared between a question and its constraints, given that constraints are constituents of the question. But I feel you are onto a different kind of link here.
