Misspelling for Trademark Purposes
It's much easier to get and hold a trademark on a made-up word or deliberately misspelled word than on a correct, common one. (Since it's much less likely anyone else will be trying to use it.) This is why I theorized that Hasbro maintains the misspelling of "Wind Sheer" for trademark purposes. But, it's hardly an important point. JW 21:23, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- I figured that's what you were getting at. But since Hasbro overwhelmingly prefers correctly-spelled words for TF names despite the trademarking issues that plague the line, I think it's overly speculative to suggest that they reversed their normal thinking for this one name. - Jackpot 21:42, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
