I am not wholly against this, but one must exercise caution in this area.

If you were to join a realm, and find yourself greeted by the High Flender of Darfix, how would you know whether that's the Lord of the region Darfix, the Duke of the duchy Darfix, or one of the government members of the realm Darfix?

If your realm has a High Doge, a Grand Duke, and a bunch of Herzogs, how is anyone supposed to know what any of them mean?

Truly, I don't doubt that there are players in BM—with you most likely among them—who could use this to make a more interesting and immersive feel for a realm, without compromising discoverability. But given some of the government position titles I've seen, I also have absolutely no doubt that allowing this will create a lot of confusion that we really don't need.
