You might disagree with the goals, but that's how things are around here. HN is about provoking curiosity, not offense, or controversy, or spice.
Sounds like your title is just not a good match for HN. That's not a reflection of the work you put into it, or whether your goals are worthwhile or anything like that. Just, not a good match.
Quit insulting your readers intelligence with clickbait titles, or push your blogspam somewhere else please. Your sense of entitlement is astonishing.
There is nothing stopping you from sharing your cruft (and bait titles) on other platforms. If you want to share it here, play by the rules or take your precious text elsewhere.
Your casual appeal to (your own) authority is juvenile. Not surprised this is your first 15 minutes of fame. Let us all hope it is the last.
Posting it on your blog didn't get you any attention, right? It was posting it here.
HN linked to your site, and promoted it to their front page, and displayed it with a title you didn't give it. That's totally fine, and expected & encouraged by the larger community.
