The bigger issue is that if a GLO does not aggressively protect its intellectual property, that property can become public domain.
How would you like it if the name of "Alpha Phi" was no longer the property of Alpha Phi?

I think it's more difficult when it comes to something like letters. If "Alpha Phi" belongs to the org and the org only, then individual chapter names of other GLOs wouldn't have the right to use it to apply to their specific chapter.My GLO had, at one point, an Alpha Phi chapter, as I'm sure many other GLOs do. However, Alpha Phi International Fraternity belongs to Alpha Phi the GLO. It's late, so I hope everyone gets what I mean
