Roblox is mentioned because it literally was a library for Roblox lmao. That's not sensationalizing.

The thread you are in and my response made it clear that the headline is clickbait by including that irrelevant detail.

If they didn’t include that word in the post title, it would have no traction at all.

"Roblox library is target of typo squatting" is a perfectly accurate headline that uses the word Roblox and is not clickbait.
