I wouldn't say a lot of people were against it, but glancing at:

- 
http://plone.293351.n2.nabble.com/Stack-Exchange-Q-amp-A-site-proposal-Plone-td7572954.html

It appears it's a lot of work and originally only desired for "branding" 
reasons. In other words, a dedicated Q&A site must arise from the actual 
need, not just desire back-filled with need via sample questions, etc.
