It isn't at all academic. I would go nuts if the series "The Dragonriders of Pern" were sorted under "T" and not "D", or if series or titles in French were sorted under "L" (Le/la quelque chose). I don't read German but I imagine many who do would not want everything sorted under "D" (Die, Der, Das). On the other hand, some people really do want titles and series sorted by articles, which is why we added the tweak a few years ago.
One could make the argument that calibre's template language has evolved to the point where the user could make the choice to use title or title_sort. This is true, but changing calibre's base behavior is not something to be done lightly. Calibre has used title_sort instead of title in save templates for nigh on 6 years. Changing that behavior would disturb a *lot* of people.
