Beautiful. I would go somewhat farther, in the information age, credentials are always an appeal to authority. Why should I, across the world and as distanced from the institutions that confer titles as anyone could possibly be, care as to the qualifications of the author? We are constantly attacked by opinions disguised as products of reason. To protect our intellectual integrity, I propose that prefixes to a name should raise doubt in us, instead of belief.
