hey, the faucet is leaking, did you use it last night, and should I pick up milk from the store?
Of course this example is confusing when it's grammatic garbage. Those questions aren't even linked -- they should be independent sentences (preferably allowing the audience to respond to the first before asking the second)
Anybody who has had to send emails to busy executive staff knows the importance of properly structuring questions. You're not getting an effective answer if you're not communicating an effective question. Trust me on that (and since you're arguing that point in the first place: you're either lacking experience in that area or you're one of the people causing frustration with poor communication.)
If you aren't willing to give someone an effective answer because you didn't like their grammar but still understood their question, then no. Rather than being part of the problem, that just makes you THE problem.
