Why is this flagged? Are HN readers sanitizing scientific papers they don't like?

  The title violates hacker news rules - should be the name of the paper.

    Seems to be one of those rules that gets applied unevenly. There are at least three unlfagged articles that fail this rule on the front page at present.

      Yeah, crowd-sourcing your rules enforcement is going to create some inconsistencies - this one was politically fraught and actively misleading, so getting more aggressive scrutiny on that front seems appropriate to me.

  People are undoubtedly flagging it because this topic has become a religious issue for them.
