Why was my question regarding premium domains closed?
Q: "Who sets the price?" A: "The owner." Q: "Who set the price of a premium domain?" A: "Premium or not (whatever premium refers to), the owner of the domain sets the price." It was not a subjective question, because "what makes a domain premium" was more of an unrelated tangent that the reader may infer or ask themselves, but ultimately has no bearing on either the question or the answer.

Is "the OP figured it out to be caused by something singular" a valid close reason?
Looks to me like it describes a scenario that could be commonly encountered, a common misconfiguration, a missed step. An appropriate answer would be one that explains, given the situation described, whether that situation could legitimately occur or seems to be missing something and then provides the steps necessary to correct the configuration.

It seems to me that if the problem occurred as a result of user misconfiguration, it IS reproducible. It could happen to someone else, and therefore it may be useful in the future. A problem that can't be reproduced would be more like a fault in an application due to a disk sector with application code going bad or a unique problem occurring in an application that was installed from a uniquely corrupted download.

Refusing to give teh codez, good or bad practice?
Professional or not, the ACTUAL steps required to complete something are often mindboggling and littered with a history of workarounds that just don't exist in the original documentation. Providing any kind of incomplete solution just renders an answer useless IMO. An incomplete answer will not save anyone time, and people coming here for answers are probably trying to save time after wasting too much looking at unhelpful documentation. I generally always provide working code if possible.
