it’s tricky though… this used to be exactly the rules until they removed a huge number of requirements for .au domains, and it helped to curb squatting. it wasn’t a perfect solution, but they number of squatted .au domains since the change has shot way up
to properly solve the issue of squatting, you can’t grandfather domains otherwise already squatted domains would be held probably for even longer because they can’t cheaply pick up more
you can probably introduce more rules with words like “primary business purpose” etc, but auDA just doesn’t have the resources to really litigate all the grey areas that’d introduce
but for sure if “registered business name” doesn’t including trading as names and things like ad campaigns then that’s incorrect
