Based on currently wide-spread practices, IMO it's quite reasonable to assume that this is click-bait verbiage, not the title of a post from a well-known author.

Because of that, I think it would make sense to find different wording for the HN title.

I've seen so many of these kinds of titles and notice that they now have the opposite effect on me. They create an unconscious 'click aversion'. I usually just skip over them automatically. But it was the 9 upvotes and 8 comments in [new] category that drew me in :)
