I don't see the original headline ("Why The U.S. Chills Its Eggs And Most Of The World Doesn't") as clickbaity. It states a simple fact and leaves me curious about why the rest of the world doesn't wash. Your suggested headline ("Eggs need to be refrigerated in the US because they come pre-washed) would have left me confused rather than curious. I'd be thinking: How is washing in any way relevant to refrigeration? It seems like a non sequitur.
