Since I'm reformatting them for my personal use, and occasionally uploading here, I use the Rework Chapter Heads sigil plugin and change them to words, Twenty-three, etc. but for the TOC they have the word Chapter in front of the number, while in the book it's just the number words. It looked a bit bare and sparse without the word Chapter in the TOC.

Roman numerals for chapters never struck me as pretentious.
