But you have *no* way to assure this, short of trademarking the name "latex". I can write something which is radically (or minorly) deviant from latex, but not a derivative work, and I can totally fudge up your goal. Indeed, I can do two things: Make a derivate work of latex, which is variant, and called "special-non-latex". Make a package with no derivatives of latex at all, which contains a single symlink: 'latex -> special-non-latex'.
