It has less to do with the idea of ship girls and just the term "Kanmusu". DMM has trademarked it like it was a slogan. Like Budweiser Beer is known as (has trademarked) "The King of Beers" (lies by the way). A lot of people, especially North America, connect Budweiser with that phrase. So DMM is just enforcing the fact that they made the phrase/word "Kanmusu" popular and relevant and that any company using that word is trading in on the value that they(DMM) cultivated with that term.
