Hey there (I'm the author of the piece). I was about to make this exact point. Perfectly said.

As a writer, creating a headline is always a balancing act. You want to drive interest and create curiosity but you also don't want to mislead readers because that will burn them and they'll never read your stuff again.

I felt I delivered on that curiosity. But the internet is a big place. Someone will always find a bone to pick.

I'm new to this site. My Medium stats said I was getting a sudden avalanche of traffic from here so I created an account just to address the initial comment of this thread.

Anyways, thanks for reading everyone.




I had fun reading and thought the headline was fine, thanks!
