Misleading title[edit]

Wouldn’t it be more accurate to make the title something along the lines of “Zhao Xianzi” or “Viscount Xian of Zhao” rather than “Marquess Xian of Zhao”, since he never used the 侯 title in his lifetime and was only accorded that posthumously by his successor? I’m pretty sure that most other articles, such as the ones about Cao Cao and Liu Bang’s father, follow this standard, at the least. Marcustcii (talk) 09:25, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
