The 'who else' question is very simple. There are consumers who can choose to buy any particular brand or not buy it. Brands that earn money continue, brands that fail to gain customers die off. Trademarks are all about commercial usage, and the consumer market is the best entity to decide which brands are worthy of success or failure.

The above domains were not in your original post. Your response has nothing to do with my post. Consumers cannot grant trademarks. Consumers can appreciate brands.
I agree though about derogatory discussion. Unfortunately we have an "activist" gov/world in the US busy destroying whats left of Federalism.
