I was under the impression that it wasn't supposed to be possible for a website to tell that the page was loaded in incognito mode; in fact, I thought it was important that they not be able to. As such, how would the page with good analytics even know the user was incognito.

incognito has always been riddled with holes. It's not a security measure. Go to nytimes in incognito.
