  1. Yes; every renewal must necessarily include all goods ever sold by the company.
  2. Yes; partial renewal is a patent concept only.
  3. No; because renewal automatically adds every unrelated service worldwide.
  4. Yes; the applicant must instead cancel every mark it owns.
  5. No; the statute contemplates identifying recorded goods or services for which renewal is or is not requested.
