Title does not inform the viewer that it is a linguistic explanation of language, which is definitely more interesting compared to the vague title that it was submitted under and would lead to a skip for me without your explanation.

It's why I consider it a bad title, since it makes it seem like the run of mill outrage bait. When in actuality a linguists insight is so much more unique compared to usual videos exploring this topic. Title draws in casual users seeking outrage, but can lead to people ignoring it out of the assumptions that the title illicits.
