Sometimes I can be too cute when I write prose text

I once wrote a manuscript on winter recreation with a subchapter about hypothermia that I titled, “Stopping hypothermia cold”.  And then several months later my editor changed that title to “Avoiding hypothermia”.  Sometimes simple prose is better for the reader than too cute prose, especially when it come to a serious subject such as avoiding the physical harm of dangerous hypothermia.
