Did the link quietly change? Based on this thread and a google cache link in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13065097 it looks like the original link was to an article in ldsmag.com, but now points to a post at abovethelaw.com.

Other than referring to Chesterton's Fence, they don't really intersect.

It's also possible that whoever posted the cache link accidentally copied the wrong URL from the Google results page. The title of the abovethelaw.com article matches the title of this HN story ("The Fallacy of Chesterton's Fence"), but the cache link points to an article entitled "The Parable of Chesterton’s Fence".

(From what I've observed, when the moderators change a story's link, they always add a comment saying they've done so - so that doesn't seem to be what happened here.)
