You might very well think that, but I've read articles saying [1] that Apple has engaged in legal battles with Fruit Union Suisse and a cycle path. It has even set its sights on logos that involve other fruits, like oranges and pears [2].

I'm not sure intellectual property law operates according to any rational rules that can be understood by us mere mortals.
