Comment (by chrisvanpatten):

 (Caveat: I may be missing something essential.)

 Giving the prefix its own filter seems (to me) to be less flexible, not
 more flexible. It assumes you'll always want the prefix to be a prefix.

 What if you want to make the "prefix" a suffix instead (e.g. "Pizza
 [Category]" or something)? You'd have to somehow save the prefix (in a
 global or something? ew.) and replace it with an empty string, then append
 the prefix you previously saved to the end of the full archive title in a
 separate function.

 Sure, doing regex parsing and such is a bit annoying (okay, a lot
 annoying) but separating it out and concating the prefix (as in
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/21995#comment:46 the example
 above]) makes assumptions about text order that might not always be true.

 (Again, unless I'm missing something super obvious, which I very well
 might be.)
