Nominative/referential use and including 'OpenStreetMap' in the name of a product are not mutually exclusive. Geofabrik for example offers a product called "OpenStreetMap Data in Layered GIS Format" [1] - that is certainly a nominative use but at the same time also "sell(ing) stuff with OSM’s brand on it" as per section 3.4.
