how do two apps for iOS devices with identical names not create the potential for confusion?

I don't know what you mean there is "Paper – stories from Facebook" and "Paper by FiftyThree". You know what I don't see them complaining about? "Paper" by misoft (an identical product by the way) and 100 other apps with paper in the title. Considering misoft got "paper" and fifty three had to use "Papaer by FiftyThree" it kind of makes me wonder if this isn't a case of the pot calling the kettle black.

This seems much more like manufactured controversy for free press than anything else.
