As I wrote in the article which started these threads, I question the
legal status of these also (my example was the openSUSE “trademark
guidelines”). I don't have an answer there.

I do note that the Trisquel “trademark guidelines” includes the
trademark license terms itself, set off in a distinct section. This is
thereby acknowledging that the guidelines are not coterminus with the
license.
