It matters what your question is and how you pose it, but not how you got to it. -- It doesn't make your question any worse or any better if you got to it in this or in that way.
Questions turning up in one's research are sometimes even not the best-suited ones for MathOverflow. Answering such questions frequently tends to be more work than an answerer on this site is likely to do, and answers are often longer than one or two pages of text, and thus rather too long for the format of this site.
