Does it mean that the letters can't be used on merchandise? The name? The crest? Mascots? Or all of the above? What constitutes "insignia"?

Because essentially, anyone who's ever made anything for someone with any of the insignia in question would then be infringing on the trademark, wouldn't they?
Since many GLOs share mascots, selling items with lions, squirrels, angels, etc on them isn't a violation (unless the mascot has a very specific look). Putting them along with letters and selling them would be.
