HN's title rule is "Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize." When a corporate press release uses an anodyne title to deflect attention, that's misleading—so it's well within the guidelines to change it to something more accurate. The main thing is not to overcorrect by sensationalizing it the other way.
