The problem isn't their use of WP, it's their use of the WordPress and WooCommerce trademarks.

I never said that was THE problem, I was simply using it to show that Automattic is acting in bad faith.
Besides, that’s BS and if you don’t already know it you need to speak with a competent attorney. Trademarks must be defended in a timely manner to be maintained, and they’ve been using those terms for years. That ship has sailed.
Stop digging yourself a deeper hole and start thinking about what you can do to repair the goodwill you’re burning.
