Maybe it is just me, but my flight instructors hate answering any questions that are not directly related to my flight training.
Right now, I'm finishing PPL, and when I do the CPL I will do multi/ifr as build up time. But when I ask the instructors some things about multi/ifr that I have read up on, they always say 'it's too complex for you at this stage'. And they also try to discourage me on doing the multi/ifr rating as build up time.
To me it seems like they are acting superior. I notice a culture in flight schools where people who have never worked in multi-crew environments in the real world although they have a multi-ifr, or only have 100 hours to their name, somehow develop a smugness that they've 'seen it all and done it all.'
The only dedicated flight instructor I have met is that guy Ron Machodo from Microsoft flight sim.
But I'm in Canada so maybe it's just a Canadian thing.
