Tangential but it’s always amusing to me to see Kasparov mentioned as a “chess grandmaster” when there are over 1000 grandmasters while Kasparov was the longest reigning world champion & widely considered the best ever. It’s like having Zuckerberg on your panel and making his title “Entrepreneur”.

He's kind of an unusual case. I'd normally think of him as yet another sports star with an opinion, but because of the way the Cold War worked, he has political importance/baggage that somebody like Joe Montana or Fernando Valenzuela doesn't have.

It’s an established, commonly used title, kinda like Doctor. Entrepreneur not a title, only a name of an occupation. Nobody really calls anybody “Entrepreneur Smith”.

"World champion" is also a bit of a title.
