I think this is a big part of it. At least some of the questions I see unnecessarily closed, it seems that the complaint is that the community disagrees with the business constraints being imposed on the problem, and would rather close the question than help someone to find a solution that meets their constraints.

It almost seems like "closed as duplicate" needs to be split into "closed: duplicate," and "closed: you should just quit your job instead of solving this problem."
