But Knights are Titans, just small ones.

The prefect example of someone missing the point.
Do not underestimate the Squats. They survived for millenia cut off from the Imperium and assailed on all sides. Their determination and resilience is an example to us all.

Its just a shame that they couldn't fight off Andy Chambers.

I agree, Furthermore, the temptation to create a counterpart thread entitled "Autocorrect Knight to Knight Titan" is only tempered by the fact that I'm working the next 3 days and will need access to Dakka.
In any event, I don't think there is any good rationale to update the world filter from it's original purpose of censoring bad words to essentially picking a side in a nomenclature fight.
There are some holy wars I really just don't get. Yes, it's a magazine, not a clip, but more importantly who cares?

I'm sure they addressed this in one of the WD weekly issues. It's a Titan in the sense of it being a large walker, but it's known as a Knight. I don't really mind either to be fair.

Best explanation I've seen!
Also, 'toy robot' seems to be the best fix too!
