The average person will identify episodes and chapters by their numbers, not their names. If we're really concerned about helping readers find things, we'd want to come up with a viable solution for this, not stress over which translations we use.

Another solution would be to be flexible with translations. If Viz's translation is not 100% word-for-word what our translator(s) would use but is still correct to the Japanese, perhaps leave it be. I believe Shippuden titles tend to be reasonably close, whereas the original anime tends to be a bit freer, as I recall.
