If that really were a valid reason then there'd be a load of take down
notices for the numerous domains that include the series of letters
"wordpress"
And, since "WordPress" is trademarked as a "standard character mark"
(#78826734 at uspto.gov) then that essentially protects "wordpress" in
any font, style, mix of case, etc.
