  That's a very bad excuse, because in *ALL* the cases you've been removing t, it is not the problem.

  No it was not, placeholder text is to give extra information that may be useful, not to describe what the field is about, because once you type on it the information goes away and when you have 4 line edits without labels and placeholders because you wrote stuff on them suddenly it's impossible to remember what each field did.
