That's not an error, that's a correction... Who would say "They've 
beamed Engineer Nerd Boy!", honestly?  No one I know.  They would either 
use his rank or just call him Mr. Nerd Boy.  I used the fairly 
low-ranking ensign, because Nerd Boy probably just recently joined up. 
He spent most of his life designing new transporters and warp cores and 
such, and just now got around to sailing around the galaxy.  He's the 
Chief Engineer already because he's really good at what he does.

That's my story, anyway.  :)
