I guess it's a Virginia thang.......the PM Degree is conferred by a Royal Arch chapter on MM's as part of the preparation for advancing in line. It confers no title or status and is basically a short course of instruction.
SW's have to obtain a Warden's Certificate in order advance to the East: that is a whole lot more complex and you have to know how to confer all 3 degrees as well as conduct other business. Again, that's not done in other jurisdictions
