Editorialization or not, this title rephrase is useful to me.
It tells me who the author is (which in this case is information I care about), and what the article is going to be about. In contrast, "Affordances" tells me literally nothing. At best, maybe I could assume that article will be about UX design?
I'm all for titles being neutral, but I also want to know whether or not something is worth clicking on. I'd be fine with a rename like, "Affordances: A sci-fi story by Cory Doctorow", but for my sake please don't just give the title of an article in isolation if that title provides no context.
