I'm not sure why that links a subthread, this is the top level: https://old.reddit.com/r/ExperiencedDevs/comments/1mopzhz/16...

It's kind of frustrating how many people there are like "hire a lawyer" and OP is like "I did hire a lawyer".

It is weird that there'd be a minimum use requirement. What about for not yet publicly released projects? Or really, why would trademarking be essentially reserved for bigger companies?

Legal paperwork is a fig leaf proxy for a game played with lawyers and lots of money. If you can't actively and substaintially flex both, you'll discover how the world actually works in due course.
