I think the title was intentionally a little clickbaity but I'm not exactly bothered by it. Clickbaity is a negative when the bait-and-switch robs you of the pay-off. In this case, I think it was overall a more interesting story and so for me subverting my expectations was actually a pleasant experience.
OTOH, it could have a negative effect if people only read the title and not the actual content.
I didn't read the content, but I trust the HN voting process to get the juicy comments on the top :)
Fair point. Unfortunately, there's no helping some people :)
