Please don't. As a reader, not seeing the same article under a different title when I return to the homepage is much more valuable than having the "right" title.
The article's title is both linkbait ("Stop Doing Bad Thing, Plus Famous Person") and misleading: people are mostly not misquoting Knuth, as the article itself points out ("Donald Knuth once wrote these unfortunate words"). To leave that title unchanged would violate both of the HN guidelines about titles.
Then please violate and/or change the guidelines.
Misleading and linkbait titles on the front page would make Hacker News much worse.
