Yes, I think they could be under with some conditions.- Questions about pairing wine with food are no good fit in my opinion. My opinion here is based on the fact that [even wine experts often aren't able to distinguish wines from each other properly](https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2013/jun/23/wine-tasting-junk-science-analysis). So I think that these types of questions and answers would be primarily opinion-based.
- For pairing food, I think that it should be more specific. So instead of asking what are good side dishes for pizza, it would be better to ask what ingredients (and possible dishes out of these ingredients) are a good fit as side dish for a pizza margherita. [Food pairing follows scientific methods](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foodpairing) so it's probable that answers aren't primarily opinion-based and can actually help one to discover new combinations or dishes.
- A short introduction to food pairing [can be found here](https://www.ktchnrebel.com/food-pairing-flavor/) which also shows some fascinating combinations. (For example salami and grapes, steak and lobster or avocado and chocolate.)
