Isn't editorializing the titles against the rules?

Complaining about the submission is also against the guidelines, but what are you gonna do.
You can flag the post and anyone is welcome to email us (hn@ycombinator.com) about editorialized titles or inappropriate submissions.
Was the post edited? It looks like the submission title is exactly the blog post title except with "Google Says" appended.
"Google says" is editorializing. When others submit content from my blog they do not say "Evan Boehs says," they just take my title. Sometimes this leads to odd titles which I'm sure you notice from time to time, like product annoucements might be "Filibuster 3" and you're like "well what is Filibuster" but such is policy.
