Categorically mandating the preservation of the original title verbatim, come hell or high water, is simply incorrect. On the original website, a page title comes with plenty of assumed context - it's assumed that the reader has some idea of where they are, and why they are there. On Hacker News the title must stand on its own merits, amongst a jostling diaspora of contexts. How often do you see comments saying "I thought this was going to be about <x>"? Too often I say! Change the rules! Viva la revolución!
