~~I meant clickbait as "The most impactfull headline to catch the most views", not as unrealistic.~~
Edit: I guess I had a wrong understanding of the word, I stand corrected!
I think your original definition works well, it is just that the most honest and accurate headline is mutually exclusive from an exaggerated or misrepresented headline used to generate more views.
