OK, then does Firestone have a right to the use of
firestone.tires.com? Or should it be firestone.tire.com? Or
Firestone.rubber.com?
This does not work either.

Personally, I wish that the use of 3LDs (and below) was encouraged as
a conflict-resolution mechanism. Then you could have
fish.firestone.com
roy.firestone.com
tire.firestone.com
wine.firestone.com
zoo.firestone.com
and so forth. The "firestones" could jointly finance and support the
firestone.com domain. (Apply this principle to any nLD.n-1LD part of
the DNS tree for the general case.)
