It's absurd to believe that Linus is the only stake-holder in this. For better or worse, the name gets carried along with the Free Software, and it makes sense for the licensing of the name to accomodate the existing paradigms of distribution for reputable free software distributions of Linux that have used the name for more than 11 years now.
