Could you please say more about why you felt I had gratuitously editorialised the title?

I have checked the definition of the word "editorialise: To present an opinion in the guise of an objective report." - I did not express any opinion in the title - I simply added context for those who don't know about the so-called "contaminated blood scandal" in the UK. Namely the three-letter detail I added was "HIV" i.e. that the UK's government-run National Health Service infected patients as young as 8 years old with HIV.

This change was not gratuitous as it added essential context to the story.

I have checked the Hacker News guidelines and since the article dispels myths people have about health systems, which is an interesting area of society, I felt it was pertinent.
