I once read that someone is famous when people omit the titles,
because they add nothing to the name, but rather would smaller it.
A good example is Albert Einstein. Who cares what titles he has.

Another is Dennis Ritchie. What does it matter what degrees, titles,
whatever he has? -- He's already a genius!
