I'm too old to worry about rust. Hell I'm rusty so what do I care. One thing you could do if it really bothers you is to find a Ti replacement. Now that would be trick and just think of all the weight you'll save!

I think it is possible that the rust for those who have removed the bolts is from the actual removal process. Is it possible one may have slightly scratched the bolt head, in turn causing the advancement of the rust....?

I was given the option to remove them or leave them and my dealer told me he'd cover it if there was ever a problem.
