had similar encounters with people asking how much longer it will take to get to Ashford as their Eurostar train leaves soon while on a train that stops at Ashford (Middlesex) instead of Ashford International, in Kent

Exactly that - my partner's company constantly get negative GlassDoor reviews because there is a different company with a similar name in India
ah I see, yeah that annoys me too
it just seems to be the way the bbc do things, the "Rare ingredient..." title is on the main page http://www.bbc.com/travel/columns/food-hospitality, in fact that whole page is massively click-baity compared to the actual article titles
it's a shame we don't hear the kids side in the article
people I know who have done this have eventually changed and allowed/bought a phone as the in school peer pressure was huge and the kids ended up feeling excluded from their social groups as not fitting in (nothing wrong with kids finding their own path btw)

same for "name-of-movie streaming release date" will give you a lot of seo filled long articles that often just end with "we don't know"
