In this context Tragic was a title earned for their efforts. It's like King Charles knighted the Titan, but since it was neither a Sir or Dame, it joined Titanic with the pronoun Tragic

I always thought allowing someone called Ethelred the Unready to rule England was a clear unforced error.

"Comedic" is a better title for this than "Tragic".
