> Exactly what trademark infringments are they worried about?

If a company has a trademark, but it does not take action to prevent
that such trademark grows into common use for a class of products
(instead of for their specific product) they loose the right to that
trademark. Happens very often, IIRC for instance Philips 'TL'.
