To checksum, do you also believe that The Little Mermaid should still belong to Hans Christian Anderson?

No, and Mickey does not belong to Walt Disney either.

If Hans had created a business that sustained to this day, then that would be different situation.

So you don't mean a "permanent monopoly" without any considerations or constraints, then? More of a "use it or lose it" situation?
