Thank you, Slatlun. It's a pet peeve of mine. I read somewhere that not rewriting article headlines is a holdover from some subreddits who prohibited the practice.

How about saying which states, rather than posting a clickbait headline?

Unfortunately this is no longer true. Matsumoto's paper, "Voyager Interstellar Mission: Challenges of Flying a Very Old Spacecraft on a Very Long Mission" notes that the full suite of system simulators were not retained beyond the prime mission due to reliability problems, loss of expertise, and a move. This makes the team's recent achievements even more impressive.
