Thanks for the clarification. I agree with your motives. However,
you might have been able to come up with a good-sounding title that
was more accurate. It seems slightly sloppy to concede that the title
isn't 100% accurate, but we'll use it because it sounds good anyway.

  (Just my opinion. Keep up the good work!)
