I agree that titotal should probably not have used the word “bad” but disagree with the reasoning. The problem is that “bad” is extremely nonspecific; it doesn’t tell the reader what titotal thinks is wrong with their models, even at a very low resolution. They’re just “bad”. There are other words that might have been informative, if used instead.
Of course, if he had multiple different kinds of issues with their models, he might have decided to omit adjectives from the title for brevity’s sake and simply explained the issues in the post. But if he thought the main issue was (for the sake of argument) that the models were misleading, then I think it would be fine for him to say that in the title.
