> It also wastes time in hiring

Sure, but on the other side, if I have someone I want to hire, and the choice is give them an extra $XX thousand or let them pick their title, I'm going to pick the title.

Or, hell, both. Both is an option too. I don't particularly care what title they want as long as they can provide the value I'm looking for.*

*Sufficiently silly titles such as Chief Brace Sculptor, or nonsensical ones such as Head Monkey Spinner may require several weeks for me to stop giggling, but I'm willing to roll with it.
