I don’t believe most start-up get “stolen,” there’s just a limited set of words and many are in use in different fields. Plus trademark expressly allows different marks by industry. A recent example here was a screen share app sharing the name with “screen,” the Unix tool. But shouldn’t that be okay? Most people won’t be confused between the two.

Apparently it didn't take long for an example to appear:

Based on name you'd think this library is for fuzzing? No, it's for fuzzy string matching. A "y" at the end would have disambiguated that.

Well, maybe not entirely, because there's still fuzzy logic, but that' 2 possibilities down from 3.
