> I've always found the CEO title somewhat ostentatious in a company with less than 10-20 people.
It is.
My startup is a team of six, and soon to be seven. One of the team once asked me what his job title should be. I told him to make it up himself. It doesn't matter what your title is. It matters what your role is.
These wanky "05:00 herb tea CEO" posts are the equivalent of titles (and tantamount to linkbait IMO). The value contributed is the equivalent of the role.
Or, put another way: it doesn't matter how you do what you do. It matters what you do.
