> But could you even get a trademark for X, a single character?

Yes. In fact there are at least a few registrations in the TESS database of X for various goods and services. They don’t conflict with each other unless the goods and services are the same.

Yes, that's obviously not true here, since both companies have money and lawyers, but one side has to lose if they go to court.
