I think my criticism is valid. Not only was this particular title not the original one, it still relies on the same false generalization that the article is using to bait people into clicking through.

From the guidelines:

> please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait.

That's quite different from what your earlier comment said.

We reverted the HN title to the article title. I'm not sure the absence of 'elderly' counts as misleading but s/patients/elderly/ is probably ok.
