Click-bait title and framing. Article on someone interested in the definition of life and questions about how life begins/began is interesting but isn't about one-upping Darwin in any sense. I would hate to be in England's shoes where just being an intensely curious researcher gets journalists to prophesize about you getting acknowledged as better than Darwin or whatever. What a bunch of distraction to have to be humble and downplay that or to defend the audacity etc. I bet lots of people will find it hard to avoid some bias against England just to spite the careless and unjustified way the journalist writes about him.

The article pushed "Look! He is a Jew! and a scientist! its so incredible! Sneakers!" way to hard.

I've come to loath articles that stretch out a mildly interesting news and bio into a long narrative that muddies the interesting part.
