I'm not making a value judgment or suggesting that you don't know how to run your website and achieve the results you want, in general, nor am I saying titles aren't impactful (including in the way you're worried about). On the contrary, I think HN is moderated well and that its community moderation features and "algorithms" in general are well thought out. I'm simply taking issue with the word "editorialize" in this context, because that's not what this is. There is no "spin" here. This title is solving the same completely innocent problem I'd have if I wanted to submit a link to apple.com after a new $PRODUCT was announced, i.e. that the interesting thing about the linked web page isn't obvious if my title is just 'Apple'. It's fine if HN doesn't want me to title that submission e.g. 'Apple Announces New 24" MacBook Pro', but that can't be because it's a case of editorializing, because it isn't. This does not strike me as substantially different. I feel like you think I'm saying non-neutral editorializing and framing should be allowed in titles, which is absolutely not true.
