Wikipedia:TITANIC
 | This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints. |
 | This page in a nutshell: No matter how many more people think first about Céline Dion when they hear "Titanic", the wikipedia article should be about the boat. |

The problem with WP:PRIMARYTOPIC as written now [edit: has been modified to include "educational value" and "vital articles"] it that it mentions only quantitative factors. It is difficult to write the guideline to consider qualitative considerations in a way that doesn't make it prone to WP:GAMING, but that does not mean editors should refrain from qualitative judgements, or we could as well let a bot rename articles automatically. Popular does not always equal primary.
Note also that Titanic redirects to RMS Titanic, a good example of where precision is preferred.
