I think it's okay, otherwise this wouldn't have landed on the front page (less likely at least). And it's only on HN and not on the GitHub repo. If it would be stated on GitHub, I'd agree with you.

It could have easily landed on the home page without the age mention. There are 10-20k links on the front page every year.

Editorialized headlines are against HN guidelines.

That doesn't matter. A show HN still doesn't allow you to editorialize headlines, but dang has replied in this thread so I guess the title is fine after all.
