> True, but it's interesting that the headline doesn't say "Opinion:..."

The section header above the headline includes “Perspective”, a common journalistic synonym [0] for opinion.

[0] Well, not quite synonym: “opinion”, “analysis”, and “perspective” are related not-just-the-facts categories, with subtle differences (but frequent overlap) in how they are generally used, but lumping then all together is useful in contexts where the interest is distinguishing from “straight” news reporting.
