Titles, as inferred from the term, tend to grant an honorific which may replace or be appended to a citizen’s name. For instance, I might call Marrabuk by their title of Grand Vizier or refer to them as Grand Vizier Marrabuk. The various orders and awards present in the Pacificum Orientale Awards Act do not establish or lend themselves to such honorifics. It is conceivable to refer to Staynes as Member of the Order of the Golden Ocelot Staynes, but that simply does not function in the same manner as a genuine title.
The function of the emeritus honor is usually to allow an individual to retain their title past their tenure. In this way, outgoing Delegate The Atlae Isles would become Delegate Emeritus The Atlae Isles. The issue here is that “Delegate Emeritus” unquestionably functions as an honorific in the manner that Concordat Article F.6 would seem to prohibit. Any system which might award retiring officers for their meritorious service would, then, need to refrain from granting such honorifics.
