I question whether articles without conclusions are necessary at all, and the situation you describe is one of poor writing. Say something, then create a headline based on that. If you aren't saying anything, then a bad headline is all that's possible.


So you're saying it's never necessary to consider open questions at all? What if the question was written as a conjecture, then the name of the conjecture was used as the title, would that be somehow better? That makes no sense.


Kind of. Sturgeon's Law takes care of the rest.


Non sequitur.
