You mean like distorting "child in the womb" to "fetus" to justify abortion?
Pretty similar to “collateral damage” or “friendly fire” instead of killing the wrong people.

Why was the title changed if that’s the case?

Not really the same. Collateral damage means extra damage outside of an intended action, and friendly fire refers to specific situations where a unit is fired upon by another unit from their their same armed forces or an allied armed forces unit.
They both have their specific meanings and refer to specific situations.

Except they are the same in that innocent persons are killed. To those who died, which words matter little.

It wasn't changed, just shortened. I can go on Amazon right now and get the book and it will be listed under its full name of On the Origin of Species: By means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life.

Except that they refer to specific situations which add context to what happened. Again: Collateral damage means extra damage outside of an intended action, and friendly fire refers to specific situations where a unit is fired upon by another unit from their their same armed forces or an allied armed forces unit.

Yes it was. Don’t you know?

Title today, “On the Origin of species.”

Original title: “On the Origin of Species by means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for survival.”

Ah, so you ignored my comment in post #248: It wasn't changed, just shortened. I can go on Amazon right now and get the book and it will be listed under its full name of On the Origin of Species: By means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life.
