I don't see what the big deal is. They couldn't trademark sci-fi so they found something that sounded like it and made it theirs, plus now since it doesn't say sci-fi explicitly they are free to add shows that don't quite fit in the little sci-fi box. Now they can "stretch your definition a bit and include comic book movies (Batman, Iron Man, Spiderman, etc..) and Harry Potter / LOTR fantasy light"
As long as they keep the shows I like and get rid of the made for tv "C movies" I'll be happy. USA made a change a few years back and it's paying big dividends for them. You can't blame sci-fi (err syfy) for trying the same.
I don't think we are going to be seeing shows like "Kendra" or "Gossip Girl" on there anytime soon. It looks like they are going to keep the shows that have elevated them in recent years and just expand on them.
