Nothing as formal as a notation, but a standard reply of an expert to a novice's question "What happened before the Big Bang?" is "Why do you assume that there must [always] be a "before"?" is basically the same thing.

Yes, but it is not a formal system, and it's a wonder no one else (afaik) did a formal system for questions and answers.
