Except there's a big hole in your logic: statement #2 is *only* true
for skimmers/jump pack troops. For a normal
infantryman/bike/tank/whetever, statement 2 would read:

2. You can CC a titan only if you are in contact with its feet.

so

3. The model starts at the feet of the Titan. (Or, the base is not a
part of the model.)


The skimmers/etc ruling is an *exception* to the normal mode of CCing a
Titan. And the whole deal with the Titan being able to CC anything on
its base is the *titan's* decision. If it wants to it can ignore
whatever's there, or it can just squish the little things... but it
isn't compulsory either way.
