It's not a question of intent but of the site rules. The rule is to use the original title unless it is misleading or linkbait [1]. In this case it was arguably both, so the original title was ruled out. One reason why baity titles are precluded is that they cause precisely the sort of bikeshed title war that brought this thread down. 1. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html |
