What does the new "Ask a Question" option do?

DMW

When creating a new discussion, there is a dropdown option for "Ask a Question".
What does it do differently?
This is a test to see what it does.

Sorry for the multiposts but when you attempt to reply to this post it indicates it did not get processed.  I gave up and then saw the above-the Buffalo works in mysterious ways. 

And the ? count did not change.  Too high-tech for me.

I think this thing is broken, each reply has:
"Did this answer the question? Yes · No"
at the bottom.
When you choose one, this is what you get:

I'll bet I'm going to get the same when I hit "Post Comment", but it will actually post.

It's a good idea just not yet fully/properly implemented. Perhaps one day.
