I suppose it was inevitable that Cannes now has a “Grand Prix Titanium.“ Gold was becoming somewhat déclassé — almost vulgar — as the top level for awards, credit cards, loyalty program tiers, etc. So, in the hive-mind way that these things happen, it was overtaken, first by platinum, then by titanium in the top spot. But, as precious-metal inflation marches on, even titanium is starting to seem pedestrian. What’s next? I have my eye on plutonium.
