Thank you for being so conscientious. We wish others were.
For a few puzzles, like the Spectator & Guardian Genius, someone starts a thread & others "Reply" adding answers (preferably hints), & other questions.
That keeps it all in one place & avoids duplicate queries.
Unfortunately, the Times puzzles are a dog's breakfast & there can be dozens of threads titled differently, & for the same questions. Good luck sorting through that mess.
Perhaps they are just self-absorbed about their immediate problem & can't see the bigger picture.
All I can suggest is, go for a larger thread & stick to it.
Welcome to the club. (-;
