The phrase 'No quick wins' is, however, found in the webpage title when I load the page in Firefox. It is embedded in the page meta properties. OP probably used a "suggest title" feature in their client. Load it up and see for yourself.

html>head>meta

<meta property="og:title" content"'No quick wins':China has the world's first operational thorium nuclear reactor" data-next-head="">

The article title and webpage title being out of sync implies to me a changed headline, with the webpage title being the original. Or maybe it is intentional to provide aggregators with a different title.

The tag is:

meta property="og:title" content="‘No quick wins’: China has the world’s first operational thorium nuclear reactor"

An og:title meta tag basically means "hey, if someone posts this on their social media, use this as the title".

So yeah OP is off the hook .

Interesting, so they change the narrative when its posted on social media apps vs on the web...
