Er...one-link answers are fine *if* you also quote the relevant bit so it's available right there, without having to follow a link and page through who knows how much text to find the bit you want. And this being the internet, where links go away with depressing regularity, I personally have been glad of the policy any number of times. It does further their core business, yes, but it also makes sense in its own right. This is not to recommend SO over improving Racket's docs.
