I suppose that "Josh Bloch Fights a LIDAR Speeding Ticket (with Science)" is a bit more link bait-y than "The Lowdown on LIDAR". I would also argue that the former compactly explains the entire content of the article, much more so than the latter, especially given that the author claims no expertise on LIDAR. Regardless, I still would have preferred the original title. Perhaps removing the reference to Josh Bloch (and, perhaps, the parenthetical "with science") could have been dropped to reduce its link baity-ness. As an addendum, I clicked on the link and read the article after the title had been changed to match the article's title, so perhaps my stated preference, as an afterthought, is completely unfounded. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
