The main difference is that those are programs which are intended to be distributed, while Fedora is a complete operating system - which includes those applications people use. While OpenOffice is OpenOffice regardless of whether you're using Fedora, Ubuntu or Windows, the same doesn't happen with Fedora. The main problem I see with allowing the Fedora logos and images to be used in Fedora-Based distros is that most people (and here I'm talking about the average Joe who barely knows how to turn on his computer) will probably think that Fedora and Fedora-Based distros are the same. It is debatable whether this is good or not - but I don't think it is. If one particular distro has problems (is for some reason unstable, etc) Fedora suffers too, because to that user they are the same thing. Saying simply "Based on Fedora" and not having Fedora logos clearly shows that the distro is NOT Fedora. Or perhaps I'm seeing it wrong?...
