It started with a wrong and misinterpreted idea from users themselves. For many years users would complain, "I don't want to see answers that have nothing to do with the question !! I want to see the best answers" Well, Yahoo thought they knew what that meant and developed the "Relevance" sort. The sort, users would have liked, but the hidden part was a bad idea. Their programmers are not YA users and did not understand a "google" sort of the answers would not always work. Just changed the sort if you want to see all the answers.

It's because that hidden answer got negative votes because probably that kind of answer was just unhelpful
