I'm not sure this the answers the question at all. Let's assume that Disney is unable to extend copyright again. So the early cartoons are now out of copyright.
Disney however, has trademarked the character design: https://trademarks.justia.com/864/81/n-86481142.html
In a situation where early Mickey cartoon are NOT copyrighted but Mickey IS trademarked, what CAN and CAN'T people do with Mickey?

Maybe he's thinking Randall Munroe as a CS degree? I think it's actually a physics degree.
