i586 and intel586 are names that could be trademarked. one of the issues
is that some other company can also tradmark a name like xxx586xxx


this could be a problem to customers because the two parts may not
actually be the same thing...close but not the same...most companies
like their customers to get exactly what they already think they are
getting.
