@dang looks like HN ate the leading “How” in the title.

fyi @dang doesn't actually flag dang. They've always advised emailing hn@ycombinator.com.
It's intentional. Imagine a blog post 'How I whizzed foobars to optimise my Home Assistant garbage collection' - it's unnecessary filler.

I agree it has times like this it doesn't work and makes the title worse though. The submitter can edit it, and this reformatting (and others) are not applied again.

why use many word, etc
Yeah, I was about to say, I sure hope they do.
