I've updated the title to something less sensationalist and more representative of the article's content.

HN does have a policy of using the original title from the submitted article, unless it is misleading or linkbait, and we try to be rigorous in enforcing it.

Users can help us by emailing us (hn@ycombinator.com) when they see a case where a title seems to be misleading or linkbait.

This is something that already happens. When there is a strong general opinion questioning the quality of the title, even if it's the same as the original title, if it's against HN directives they do get changed. Unfortunately I don't remember exactly these cases, but if you've been to HN long enough you've surely seen these changes.
