	Eliminating this pointless fluff of "politeness" allows the question to be answered as soon as it's read, instead of making someone potentially prepare for an entire conversation that they may not be ready for. If we aren't friends, you're engaging in a transactional conversation. The only reason you're talking to me is to extract information from me. We're probably never going to talk again after the interaction. Allow people to efficiently interpret your question so they can efficiently answer them.

			There is also no indication of urgency in "hey, can I ask you something?", so why uphold an expectation of an immediate response? Please be upfront in your message intent in your original message.

	Time is valuable~~. Please don't be disrespectful by wasting it~~. You can be polite ~~by including~~ your ~~greeting and other fluff in the same~~ message ~~as your actual query~~, ~~or ideally leaving it out altogether~~.		Time is valuable. You can be polite while being upfront about your message intent while you're waiting on a response, rather than expecting someone to respond to a random "hi".

	If you include substantial filler in your message, it may cause the recipient to think that you're asking for more than what you're actually asking for. If this occurs, I'm probably going to subconsciously ignore the message until I'm able to properly read it all. If it's a simple message like "hello" from an account I'm not familiar with, ~~and~~ I don't know who ~~or what I am interacting with~~, ~~I may wait for you~~ to ~~write the reason for your appearance before~~ making ~~any~~ response. ~~The existence of spam and scam bots also contribute to this issue~~.		If it's a simple message like "hello" from an account I'm not familiar with, why would I respond if I don't even know that you're not a random bot?

			There are also a few assholes who habitually segue a greeting into a personal request, so don't be one of them. It's no different from those coworkers who only appear on your phone when they need a shift taken. It is very shitty to lure someone into a conversation that only ever was meant to be a personal sidequest, especially when making a request during live communication can be seen as pressuring someone into a response. Be upfront about what you want.
