This is what we expect in a capitalistic world. Since everything is for sale, and sales are everything, everything must be protected from everyone so that everyone must have to buy everything so that everthing in the system works like THERE WAS NO TOMORROW!
Yes, this seems funny and arbitrary. But in fact the trademark laws require you do defend your rights, you have to make sure your trademark is not being used for similar products or in ways that could be confused with yours etc. Failing to do so may create a precedence that could be used by others to challenge your trademark.

I guess you did not want to hear this, right? Lawers are so arbitrary and evil!
