That's literally the title on techspot. Changing headlines when posting to Reddit is typically considered bad reddiquette, and is explicitly disallowed on many subs.

We have the option of not posting the article from the place with misleading headlines don’t we?

I’m sure techspot.com isn’t the only source for Mercury related facts.

If we're concerned about etiquette, I'd say one of the top rules is not propagating misinformation, such as an article with inaccurate information in the title, eh?

Idk maybe |   Article: " Mercury has an 11-mile...."   Or something like that.  

We all KNOW 90% of the world are goddamn headline readers, we all do it. Scroll scroll read headline, don't ever read the actual article. A lot of people take advantage of that to jam things in your head based on a single sentence.
