Kafka: An End or a Beginning?

On the other hand, when a title is going to mislead and confuse most readers, it would be courteous to extend or clarify the title such as:

"(Franz) Kafka: An End or a Beginning?"

That is, unless the goal is to mislead and feel smug about it.

On my screen, it shows up as "Kafka: An End or a Beginning? (lareviewofbooks.org)" which was all the information I needed to determine that it related to the Author before clicking through.

As both zellyn and the site guidelines point out, the domain name is part of the title here, so it wasn't as ambiguous as all that.

Not spoon-feeding readers is part of what makes HN HN.
