Why did you change the title?
Article title is: Electric hydrofoil ferry completes record 160-mile voyage using standard fast chargers

that’s your problem? why is that your problem? is that really a problem? is anyone hurt? does the change misinterpret something?

It’s missing key information, and without that information the title doesn’t make sense, and kind of isn’t as interesting. Now read your comment as if I wrote it back to you.

you could have just said “i don’t understand”. here, let me help you: a ship has set a record under certain condition.
if you have a specific information to add, like that it applies to electric ship, it would be much more useful to add it, instead of asking cryptical questions that does not help anyone, and baselessly accusing the poster of changing the headline. that is, if being useful was your goal.
you are aware that any online server can update their texts, including headlines, and this headline may very well represent the state of the article at the moment it was captured, right? RIGHT?

If this was a childish behavior contest, you would be winning by a landslide.
Why even attack someone pointing out the title is misleading and wrong? What’s wrong with you.

Also, the original article had a perfectly fine title. It’s pretty standard when posting to keep the title of the original article you’re linking to instead of editorializing it, unless you’re specifically going to fix something and note that.
Here, let me help you: copy, paste.

Your comment was inane, which is why I gave the “no, you”.
