suprisingly imo, the product is named "breathe-right"


So it is surprising to you the manufacturer managed to correctly
spell it in a context that everyone can understand. Yet somehow - you
think the name of the product should be intentionally misspelled.
Interesting.


Based on observation, I think there are a lot more product names that
are misspelled than spelled correctly, so as to face fewer
difficulties enforcing a trademark, iiuc. There are many many
examples, such as all those products that use the syllable "rite".
Just a guess: maybe this is less of a problem with a two-word name.
