If they were, “are”, “of” and “and” likely wouldn’t be capitalized.
Also, “the actual grammar rules” are not a thing. There are lots of different style guides for how to capitalize titles, there’s no generally accepted “correct” version like there is for most of orthography or regular grammar (but almost all of them have in common to not capitalize the words I mentioned before)

following the actual grammar rulestrying poorly to follow a style guide for capitalization of titles.Edit: as @hikaru755@lemmy.world pointed out, I totally missed that words were capitalized for which no style guide advises capitalization.

Yep, you’re right. I missed those.
I was reluctant to say anything about Chicago, APA, etc.
