Except no one, ever, would take "dog bites man" as "one dog bit all of mankind". The title is misleading and, at least one person (myself), took it to mean "quantum computing in general".
I think you misread "quantum computer" as "quantum computers." The headline is very clearly talking about a single specific computer that is marketed as a "quantum computer."

P.S. why did you go with "man bites dog"?
It's a saying.

Obviously it's not "very clear" as I was not the only one who took at as a more general statement. Just read through this thread.
