Apologies for the editorialised title. It felt better to me to be descriptive than to take the click-bait title from the video.

- dTal 5y agoYour title absolutely is better. I think HN's policy can be quite damaging. Thanks for link to the amazing video, it's truly in the spirit of gratifying intellectual curiosity!
- dang 5y agoSince the original title was clickbait, it was quite within HN's policy for dan-robertson to rewrite it: "Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize." https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html When rewriting a title for correct (by the guidelines) reasons, the main thing is to use representative language that accurately and neutrally says what the article is about. Preferably the language should come from the article itself, though that's harder to check with a video. In any case, the rewrite here wasn't editorialized.
