Awesome. I didn't realize how bad clickbait had gotten until I subscribed to the Economist for a short while - I could just scroll through its articles, read the title and subtitle and know what the article was about and in most cases it wasn't something I needed to read.
Hn could do its readers a huge service here by requiring descriptive headlines, instead of the current rule about not changing the headlines. Even better would be adding a 30-50 word summary under the article.
