I think the title is fine but they are right I will be seeing this article shared on Facebook in a day or so and people will assume they mean it was preserved as an organism not turned into a rock. I knew what they meant from the title and I’m sure so will most intellectually inclined individuals but there is a huge market of people who eat up pop sci (or their titles at least) articles and it perpetuates fake science even if the article isn’t actually doing that.
It’s basically like those articles that say “scientist proves existence of higher dimensions” where everyone who tends to read scientific literature figures they mean “has solved some physics equation using 4 dimensions instead of 3” but the majority who see it only through popsci articles and groups think the scientist has found physical evidence of another universe.
