davout: i'm not saying there's an ambiguity in the bet resolution, it's perfectly clear if the body supersedes the title
davout: the way i understand what you say is that the bet title is merely a convenience, it has no value with regards to resolution, so by changing the title you're not really changing the bet itself, much like you could change the css around it or whatever
