This may not technically be a new feature but slight variations on the same thing are very much in the bucket that that rule is meant to address.
This is a special case of a more general issue: follow-up posts [1] are not great for HN because they are repetitive, and curiosity withers under repetition. The test we apply is whether a post contains significant new information [2].

That would be amazing, but that story was Jan 10th. The next one was Jan 21st.
Also not the oldest, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22000761 is a day earlier, and refers to a BBC report dated Jan 9th
Conversely, there are often topics in the post that are not in the headline.
Anyways this is great, thinking if I could integrate some features into the app.
Considering this was posted just 2 days ago by yourself and there’s a pretty active discussion there, this thread is unnecessary.
Personally, this is one of the most useful and thought provoking demonstrations of leveraging pre-existing information that I have ever encountered.
