I mean, if you just don't care about the title, that's one thing. But what's the difference between them removing the title and, say, the armor. Or the weapon. Or the shield. Or the boosts. Or the inventory space. Or the.. you get the point. You advertise bonus elements in your package and you deliver on those.
If you look around, you'll find user posted conversations with GMs promising that deluxe edition owners not receiving the title is a bug. (I actually haven't seen anyone with the title.) Now, which GM you choose to believe is up to you, but in the end I'm putting more weight on the one that matches the description of the item I paid for. Expecting anything less is silly. You gave them $100 for two words above your character's head. I'm pretty sure they're not ready to go to war over that.
You should be, though. Because that's one expensive string of text. Seriously, if the way to make the collector's edition more appealing (and the CE is just a physical copy of the deluxe that already comes with plenty of physical items), they can just make up a new title. We can make up one for them, if it helps. "Ark Seeker". "Bay Area Adventurer". That was hard. :P
