Anyone wants to use the word "SUBSIM" has to pay him.
Anyone wants to use the word "Carotio" you don't get squat.
I suspected it was related that way to $$$, but again the question remains a bit...
Carotio is actually two words written as one. Ask an Italian what it means:
caro tio I don't wanna trademark the name. I'm too much a bad wolf to protect a notoriously bad rumoured name....

Most people don't do that sort of thing in the first place, because they respect each other.
What I really meant by what it is good for, is that since you speak of respect among each other, do you then have previous incidents where the subsim name was in any real danger of being picked by someone else?
Still just curious...
