[It's real nobility alright, in everything but technicality. But of all his titles and names, Lord Auditor is the one Miles has earned strictly on his own merit, with no hint of inheritance or nepotism at all. It's a complicated thing that means not a lick to anyone not Barrayaran, and he isn't about to try to beat someone else over the head with the concept unless they express interest. Suffice to say, he's extraordinarily proud of it, and every other one of his names and titles. A heavy weight, but one he'd never put down.
No, Miles keeps so much of this non-public simply because he likes to pick and choose which part of his convoluted, multi-faceted identity to embody at any given moment.]
