It's a trademark issue. CentOS is not Red Hat, so they can't use Red
Hat's trademarks. Nothing more, nothing less.

Personally, I don't see why RH is doing this. I would think that it
undermines RH. But I'm still new/old to all of this. It used to be the big
argument was between Unix from Berkeley(4.? I think) and SysIII/V. Always
always battles for turf.

I don't see the concern. CentOS is a binary-compatible clone of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. Further, Red Hat sponsors and supports the CentOS
project, providing confidence in it's long-term survival which business
looking for a flavour linux want to see.
CentOS users should be happy about Red Hat, not scared of it. Likewise,
CentOS is valuable to Red Hat as it's the source of their future
customers. So it's a very mutually beneficial relationship.
