Likely to do with copyright. If you let someone else profit off of your IP so directly, you risk losing the copyright, since that's kinda the entire point of copyrights. Letting them profit directly is failing to defend your ownership.
You're thinking of trademarks, which can get "diluted" or gnericized by allowing unauthorized use. There's no parallel in copyright — copyright holders can enforce them a little, a lot or not at all without losing their rights.
