Misuse of microformats logo for ‘POSH’ bling

On 3rd May Ben Ward objected (http://www.mail-archive.com/microformats-discuss@microformats.org/msg07543.html) to the use of the microformats logo in graphics promoting ‘POSH’, on grounds that it creates confusing and undesirable ambiguity between the terms ‘microformat’ and ‘POSH’. We're at a point where people are wrongly interpreting ‘microformat’ as a general term for semantic class names. The endorsement of these graphics on our own Wiki is a massive hindrance to our efforts to discourage such misuse.

Please indicate a vote below on the removal of the microformats logo POSH buttons.
