I suppose GP is using clickbait in the looser sense that the title omits info (the professor's name) and thus invites a click; rather than the more common use of clickbait to label titles that are exaggerated, misleading, or "one-weird-trickey".

Granted, titles can't contain a full articles worth of facts, so omitted info is always expected; but omitting primary subject's name does lean somewhat reader-hostile (IMO).
