Surely at that point you can afford to either pay to use the trademarks, or pay to host your own archives.
I don't want to use the trademarks. I'm not sure what hosting has to do with anything here.
Do you honestly expect Canonical to give you the ability to grant trademark use to other projects?
No. I want to be able to produce a derivative of Ubuntu that I am sure doesn't infringe Canonical's IP policy, such that others can distribute modified versions of it without requiring any additional permission from Canonical.
Are you sure that isn't referring to the source packages only?
Yes. "Other electronic download site" includes RHN, which gives you access to the binary images.
