You are so right that these generic questions can be super annoying and frustrating without adding any real value.
My personal pet peeve was medical people asking "Do you want to hurt yourself?" instead of saying suicide. Well I used to self injure pretty regularly, so my answer was almost always "yes I want to hurt myself, doesn't mean I want to kill myself"
