This is one of the cases where the title of the article is better than the title chosen on HN. Because the entire article is really about why this is The Right Way to Grant Equity to Your Employees.
(As of the time of this comment, the title starts off "One Way..." instead of "The Right Way..." You might disagree with the article's assertion that this is the right way. But a different subject is misrepresenting the article.)
I think it'd be better to have "The real title [whatever comment the editors want to make]". If someone writes a blog post, they should have a right to keep their title.
I'm sure the change was made because "The Right Way..." falls under the "gratuitous adjective" clause in the guidelines, no different than if it said "The #1 Way...".
