Why did the submission title get changed from "How I served 100k users without breaking the server- or a dollar bill." to "Hosting a Website on S3"?

The moderators did it.

The moderators were heavy-handed, in my opinion. Original title was great. It wasn't misleading or link-baity. Not sure why it was changed.

My guess would be because this has already been discussed many times on HN so they felt it was better to just call it what it was.
I'm not saying I agree, just making an observation.

Not going to disagree (because, really, it isn't worth it) but I thought my original title brought a little more emphasis to how cheap S3 is- as the OP demonstrated, I'm not sure that's so widely known.
