why?

  Not sure which point you are asking that to, but I'll guess... The reason inaccurate and misleading titles are some times changed are because people do not want inaccurate or misleading titles.

    No, I was not referring to the title. It was not be the best, but it was not misleading. Readers followed the link on the title, read the article and voted it up to the front page anyway. Why to kill a front page thread with a lively discussion?

      Users with sufficient karma flag problematic stories. It was the users that called it down.

        I'm not going to bore you to death with my questions so please you do not have to answer. However, I am puzzled what was problematic with that story apart from that it challenged certain consensus scientific views (which was the reason for submitting it on Hackers News).
