And so far we all agree, and this is the premise of the old issue I mentioned: http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=116757 But does this mean that, like Stefan wrote in http://www.mail-archive.com/l10n@libreoffice.org/msg02401.html all possible derivatives including "Pivot Table" must be avoided? (And why didn't Microsoft trademark "Pivot Table" directly then?) I understand the point of view of those who believe it's better being safe than sorry, but this change would have some positive effects for users who look for the "Pivot Table" functionality and fail to recognize that "Data Pilot" is what they are looking for. Of course they get accustomed, but still this sounds like a ripoff of Pivot Tables...
