The submitted title was "No, the Las Vegas 'Loop' Is Not the Future of Public Transportation". That broke the HN guidelines, which ask submitters to use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait, and not to editorialize. We remove submission privileges from accounts who post like this, so please don't.

Note: if this was the article's original title and, as sometimes happens, they changed it, then none of this applies. Usually it's just the NYT who do that though.

Current title is "Elon Musk’s $49 Million Las Vegas Loop Makes Perfect Sense—for Las Vegas"


Ah right, I skipped a step above: it's fine to use a subtitle if it represents the article in a more accurate and neutral way.


Dang getting downvoted. This is a black swan


The title (as in, the text between <title></title>) on the page served to me was:

"Las Vegas to Elon Musk: Tesla Tunnel? We'll Take 2 - CityLab"


The BBC does it a lot too.
