What really tickles me about this “X Considered Harmful” title is that in its first famous appearance, it was an editor who rewrote the title of Dijkstra’s letter which was something like “A case against the Go To statement.” So in that original case, it was clear that the author of the letter was the person/authority in question.

Now, to me, one isn’t supposed to use that passive voice title for one’s own writing unless you want it to be taken as a joke.
