Is there any reason to think that Titanox wasn't just Zeus's fancy-made-up-name for CP? As you probably know, Inox is Eurospeak for stainless steel, which is a huge class of steels, as also know. Is there any reason to think that Zeus wasn't simply trying to differentiate their ti from everyone else's ti? The Titanox name would also carry the benefit of emphasizing the stainless properties of titanium. Just thinking out loud here...
