@JmillsExpensify @arosiclair tagging you here because you're on the linked PR. This doesn't seem like a bug to me, I would expect that if someone mistyped a report title field then we'd print what they typed, not change their report title field on their behalf to something acceptable. Do I have that right?

[JmillsExpensify]

This feels more like something that is occurring as a result of the report titles project roll-out.

[JmillsExpensify]

As for your question, I would just ignore anything in the report title formulas that isn't correct.
