Shouldn't you be rewarded for your marketing genius in choosing that better title? The same thing could happen if you changed the title of a web page. Better titles can cause people to download more readily. Better titles can match the words that people are searching for. Neither of these are the Market's fault. Or did you mean that the title is overweighted in keyword search in recent months? Because I am with you there. I've lost a huge amount of traffic from search in the last month, and would like to be able to appear for relevant search terms without changing the title (not practical for me).
