    Explicitly means it literally says misleading words. Implicitly means it leaves out relevant words.

    Its like lieing by omission.

    In my opinion its misleading, but maybe I just have an awful time parsing headlines.

      You can’t offer a better headline. And you admit its not misleading. Take L and move on. I’m not going to search. It’s your argument to prove. I feel it’s accurate. It’s not misleading; the title is accurate.

      It, misleading, means to be deceptive, imo, the headline is not deceptive.

      Edit also trying to change what you originally said. You didn’t say it wasn’t implicit.
