"copyrights and patents and utility certificates and design patents and
chip topologies and ..."
It is even rarer to want to talk about all those together.
What they have in common is slim and the differences are many.
This is a problem we don't need to solve.
When people do try to talk about all these things put together, the
reason is usually not that it makes sense for their purpose, but
rather that they assume the category "intellectual property" is the
proper one to use, solely because that term is so fashionable.
