As I tried to explain, the title is misrepresenting reality in the direction of exaggeration. Which is probably the definition of clickbait, so the original commenter is not wrong.

But you also went too far in your criticism of the title.

I don't think there's a reason to pursue this but I can't see how this is too far.

I wrote:

> title implies "911 doesn't ring sometimes" ∈ "very scary issue dialing 911", that is incorrect

to summarize why the downvoted comment said the title is clickbait. (As in, it’s a scary issue with the phone, but if we limit to the domain of issues when dialing 911 then 'not ringing sometimes' is not scary, it's mundane.)

And it is wrong to insist that "scary" must be interpreted relative to that domain. Being scary in the domain of phone use, then noting the specific time it occurs, is fine.

And you didn't just say it could mislead, you called it illogical, and that's not right. You're being pedantic about a rule you made up.
