But the title says "CoffeeScript is not worth learning".

No, it says "it's not a language worth learning". The author's point is that CoffeeScript is not a language, but a tool for JavaScript.

I think it's quite obvious the title is deliberately misleading to get more people to read it.

Sure, but that doesn't excuse people from commenting without reading it.

The title is still misleading. It doesn't become clear that the author is advocating CoffeeScript until the end of the article.
