One thing is that none of the titles mean much for people who don't know what they're buying. Heck, there are fans of the series who have trouble remembering which novel is _Jhreg_. I wonder if people have returned _Dragon_ or _Orca_ to the store saying that the title mislead them. p.s. The above quote has "Enchantess", (without an "r" which could cause some confusion)
