The automatic removal of the word "how" from submission titles needs to be removed. The original title is better and more indicative of the content of the article.
Submitters can edit titles in cases like this, but a lot of people submit and walk away instead of double checking that the auto-edits (like removing "how", "why", leading numbers and some other things) don't turn the titles into nonsense. There's a similar window for editing the title as editing comments.
Yes, you shouldn't have to. "World's" also gets removed even though "world's first" is a common expression.
