Why is the headline editorialized to include Elon's name? Reuter's title reads 'U.S. warns SpaceX its new Texas launch site tower not yet approved'.

I heard years ago that titles are heavily A/B tested.

I.e. the title you see might not be the one the poster saw.

considering the url is the same as the title I saw, I really doubt that in this case.
There is no reason why there should be a hard link between title and URL.
It's even editorialized to be false given that FAA granted permission to build the tower.
