I'll admit that I'm not a fan of that trademark having being granted. It's a common term in the industry / sector that they operate in.

It would be like an internet company trademarking Browser, or a car company called Engine.

I guess talking about browser chrome isn't what it used to be anymore.

We recently had a spate of tech companies named after common programming terms - "Buffer" and such. Seemed a bit vague and low-effort for my liking.

Or a operating system that has square stuff that resemble windows to be called Windows, yes?

To be fair, how often were discussions about windows talking about anything to do with computers BEFORE microsoft made Windows?
