Are you serious? How long do you need this title to be?

  There is a long standing tradition on HN to complain about titles that don't totally and completely accurately capture the message of the article, such that the article is a mere 1000 word bit of fluff to the tweet-sized message itself. Any title short of that measure is clickbait or just wrong. Best option is to ignore them.

    Captain Pedantic[0] also seems to be under the illusion that the title is exclusionary. Quite the contrary: many, many people can fall from 15K feet altitude and live, and the title will be just as accurate. [0] Kidding aside, I take it to be just a poorly-executed attempt at humor.
