Although those demoted nobles were titled Dazai Ingainosochi to be distinguished from the regular Dazai no sochi and Dazai Gonnosochi (e.g., FUJIWARA no Toyonari, FUJIWARA no Hamanari, and FUJIWARA no Yoshino were appointed Dazai Ingainosochi), the above-mentioned Imperial Prince Abo was especially titled 'Dazai Gonnosochi' to be distinguished from the traditional Dazai Ingainosochi by taking account of the fact that he was punished for the Incident which had nothing to do with him in fact and that he was a son of the cloistered emperor.
本来こうした貴族は大宰員外帥と呼ばれ、正規の帥・権帥とは区別されていた（大宰員外帥に任じられた例としては藤原豊成・藤原浜成・藤原吉野など）が、前述の阿保親王左遷の際に本人に直接関わりない事件である事と太上天皇の皇子である事への配慮から特に「権帥」の称号を与えて従来の員外帥とは区別した。
