According to:

"Titles may be gained by achieving a published or interim rating at some time or other (see 1.53a) having at that time played at least 30 rated games:

FIDE Master ≥2300
Candidate Master ≥2200
Women FIDE Master ≥2100
Women Candidate Master ≥2000"

I really don't get why CM is a title. It's a Candidate Master - you're a Candidate to be a Master.

If I go to a job interview for, let's say Tesco, I'm not an employee at Tesco. I'm a candidate to be an employee.
