Changing {} to [] seems like a very strange suggestion to me. {} is used here because it's the way you group things in LaTeX. If you were going to change it for human use, why not just use parenthesis? What's wrong with {} in the first place?

Sure, that’s fine too. Whatever makes more sense than the current title is an improvement, and I can’t judge what’s best for this audience.
