I have argued that some titles are linked with jobs, in GURPS terms. Others are just courtesy rank. Some are military , religious, or administrative rank- and also linked to a job. Some are just part of status.

I agree with your point, I just disagree about which titles are which. Warden of the XXXX are just (Courtesy) Rank, while managing a Great House is a job.

I strongly suspect that Hand of the King could come with similar perks, if the person who held the title were inclined to take them. But Honesty prevents Ned from exploiting his position for personal gain, even though King's Landing is corrupt enough that it's expected.
