when i worked for LSUC, the equivilent of a state bar association, i think,
i was asked to dream up a new title for my role, and asked for
"Network Architect".
it was rejected for the reason that "it bestowes upon you a professional
designation for which you are not qualified."
i think my title ended up being "Systems and Network Engineering Manager".
