Folks:

2.2.1 of the OPF Specs:

"The title of the publication. An OPF Package Document must include at least one instance of this element type, however multiple instances are permitted. Any Reading System that displays title metadata should display the content of the most appropriate title element(s). Determination of the most appropriate titles is not defined by this specification, but may include the available fonts, an examination of xml:lang attributes, or other heuristics. In the absence of such an algorithm, conforming Reading Systems should consider either the first title element or all the title elements as the most appropriate."

So, no point in discussing it further, methinks. FWIW, we use it for each individual segment (chapter, frontmatter, titlepage, etc.) in a book, for those readers that DO display it. The idea that it would use less power seems very...well, not sure what it seems, but I fail to see that it would result in any actual power savings.

ETA: One of my Crew suggested that if one is concered about power usage to render that line, you could save a lot more by just typing everything in all lower-case. Or eliminate commas, semi-colons and quotes. His theory is that ee cummings uses less power than, say, Mark Twain. ;-)
