How do you expect maker T harming dealer G? Other than making a better product and outselling G? Maker t can't force maker G to change its relationship with dealer G or undercut G. I would expect that if maker T is harming dealer G other than by normal market forces, then they are probably already doing something illegal and no further protection is actually needed.

That a good question, and apparently the court used something like that line of reasoning in this case: that a car dealer could only be harmed (in the legal sense) by the car maker they sell for.
