Excluding TM interests from representation does nothing to further
that business case. In fact, it probably weakens it: TM interests
are very powerful politically, and are simply "routing around" you --
in the network where it matters. I believe that the histrionic
exclusionary antics of DNRC, Milton Mueller, and others, are in the
long run, probably doing more harm than good to non-trademark
interests.
