There's a reason they're called guidelines not rules :)
We don't want them to be rigidly enforced for their own sake, we want them to help cultivate more interesting discussions.
So, when a case arises in which the original title causes a discussion to be bad (e.g., it is becoming dominated by off-topic discussion of the fact that the project's name causes it to be mistaken for an established project that's already well known to the community), that surely warrants a deviation from the guidelines, no?
