I understand the reason for the change, but thanks for mentioning the original title in the comment. I think it's really funny.

It's called guidelines, not laws, so maybe from time to time it is alright to get a little creative and/or funny.

I agree! just not in this case. Not that it wasn't funny (it was) - but it wasn't funny enough. YMMV of course.
