That's an interesting convention. Would they do that for military personnel as well.

I just spent forever looking for the exchange so I could share it, but it’s out there, somewhere. I don’t remember military titles being addressed. It would be interesting to ask.

Me too. I'm a sucker for footnotes. I was reading a math book and it had a footnote referencing another math book etc. It ended when in the third paragraph, the latest book footnoted: It would be valuable to have read Newton's Principia.
