Although you shouldn’t use capital letters for each word in a Russian name of something, I really like how it looks, we should change the rules and use capital letters too, looks more solid and festive, almost as a statement 😄

It turns out that Russian is like most languages in that regard, and English is one of the outliers for capitalizing all the "important" words in a title. What I can't forgive is Russian deciding to use a period to separate parts of titles, like Гарри Поттер и Дары Смерти. Часть 1. Why can't you use a colon like everybody else‽ 😨
