To me, this article with this title is as much of a low effort spam as the PRs it is critiquing.
So this post got the the front page of HN with no comments, with a title "Reputation Scores for GitHub Accounts." The article does not show reputation scores, it barely even sketches out ideas for a reputation score.
It should be titled "We Need Reputation Scores for GitHub Accounts" to let people know that this is just a low effort feature request.
I didn't see the GitHub domain so I assumed it's going to be some blogger sharing their thoughts on a situation.
Not every title will be able to cater to everyone's ability to understand or misunderstand the intention, so it's worth taking the time to read it. I found it to be short and well written fwiw.
sigh

It doesn't read that way to me at all.

That was my assumption. It doesn't link to GitHub. Did you think it was announcing a new feature on someone's blog?
