As a suggestion for affirmiatvly claiming trademarks as closed / proprietary,
why not include a reccommended replacement for them?
As an example: "The phrase "The Craft of the Mind" is hereby claimed as a
proprietary trademark in this work, and is expressly identified as not open
gaming content. [insert permission notice here] For use of the open gaming
content from this work without the proprietary trademark, a replacement of
"psionics" is suggested for "The Craft of the Mind."
