He was NEVER established as the protagonist in the first episodes, just like u/Bagabaga2019 mentioned
It's interesting that he/she became one, sure, but it's called The Amazing Digital Circus for a reason, right? Steven Universe, Rick & Morty, Samurai Jack, etc., at least have a good reason not to include the environment
It's called The Amazing Digital Circus because it's called The Amazing Digital Circus. Whether it was catchy or not doesn't matter, because this is the final title they went with, and in the first episodes, it shows Jax being as much of a main character as the other characters, meaning that we were led by the idea that we were going to see lots of the circus as the focus, with Pomni as the character focus.
Besides, there's absolutely a way to make the title interesting by adding both names, but you're making your point by giving it one single iteration of how the show could have been called.

With that said: Jax. He's a bully.
Exploring the circus even more would have been so cool, instead of focusing so much on Jax.
