If you want this, add a script hook to do it yourself. Blindly adding
braces around an entire title is wrong in the general case, and Google
Scholar and others only perpetuate this asinine behavior.

Did you read the discussion at the link you posted? BibTeX styles have

a particular style. You need to protect acronyms and place names
manually, among other things. This is the way BibTeX has always worked.
Biblatex probably does something different.
