What's baffling about it? If someone were to only read the title and not the article and came to the comments section, a summary about the title would be desired. What you're probably baffled about is why do people only read the title and not the article.
- nighthawk648 7y agoI’m not sure... HN is supposed to be real time discussions of articles. summarizing the article not only is not discussion (read it is regurgitation / bastardization) but any argument / discussion had based on the summary will be inaccurate as they are going off of the words of another, who more than likely integrated logical fallacies that did not exist before the comment.
- sand500 7y agoFWIW this happens on reddit too as so many posts have clickbait titles, people are trained to go directly to the comments to find out the non clickbait version.
