Can you reassure me then with the data that backs up your claim? Because in my very long career I've seen a lot of people use heuristics when deciding who to follow up with.
"According to a 2018 CareerBuilder survey, 70% of employers check out applicants’ profiles as part of their screening process, and 54% have rejected applicants because of what they found."
HR are not going to reject an incredibly experienced senior guy with a CV as long as your arm because of the title of a blog post. Your quote doesn't even suggest they would, and I'm not going to cite any evidence because it's honestly just a patently absurd proposition.

HR will definitely reject someone because of the title of a blog post. When you have a pile of a hundred CVs and two openings, you disqualify quickly.
I'm basing this on real world experience.
