I wanna say there is a hierarchy of enforcability to trademarks, copyrights and patents on top of their application requisites. I also think that Patents are sort of the top tier that all regulations apply to with a trickle down effect in how they apply to TM’s and C’s. Don’t quote me on it tho. I’m going off the time at work years ago when the idea of patenting or tradmarking a thing. I might also be mixing it up with how they regulate Trademarks vs Registered Copyrights.
