it is indeed realpolitik clear that future employers never verify current employer titles and that a strong element of titles overall is marketing, just for you instead of a product

a useful heuristic I've found is that the more titles matter, the more hierarchical and political the org is. So use that as a calibrator when people tell you "they totally don't matter" or that they very much do. It's on that spectrum
