It’s an acceptable kind of HN comment. A link in the article is generally easy to miss and probably others missed it too.
Admittedly the article did talk enough about the other thing that it’d be pretty hard to miss if you read the whole thing, but I think we can forgive it still. Perhaps the parent to your comment opened the page and saw the video but didn’t bother to read the article. I think that’s fine too.
I always read comments first and in fact quite often I read the comments only. As long as we don’t derail the discussion completely by starting a top-level comment about how we perceive something based on the title alone I think it’s fine. That includes it being fine to mention things that you are reminded of by the title as long as you phrase it correctly. In my opinion of course.
