I think we are nearing click bait here, which is becoming a more and more common on HN

How so? It's the original title, and it aptly described the article.

We are probably just becoming more sensitive and resistant to having our feelings manipulated constantly. Which I think is a good thing.

Edit:On second thought, I got further in the article and it's clear that the whole "we almost kept it secret" angle is a total stretch created by the author to make for a more exciting read. Yeah, this is click bait. Although, it's cool to know that you can theoretically smash two quarks together and get a boom.

Just because it's the same as the original title doesn't mean it's not click bait. It just means the original title is click bait too.

A non clickbait-y title would explain what the article was about instead of creating mystery so you would follow through.

If you email the mods [email protected] , they sometimes change the title. It's better if you send an alternative, preferably the subtitle or the main sentence of the article.

the article was interesting to me but the title has that buzzfeed feeling to it.
