I’ve stayed out of sauoq’s thread for the most part, because while I agree with his sentiment, I rather disagree about the premises. However, I wanted to offer my own reasoning for arriving at the same conclusion, different though the way of getting there might be. Let me first state The Law of Bad Titles:
The key is that by thinking about this, we can derive The Corollary of The Law of Bad Titles:
And that is why, at the bottom line, I agree with sauoq. Further to the point, many retitling considerations seem to come about because someone decides the node needs retitling, then tries to think of a better title. I get the impression that people want to leave footsteps in wet cement. Makeshifts last the longest.
