In effect, what you are saying is that we should support the counterfeit trade by claiming premium goods should all be priced on a level, which is obviously absurd.

I can totally see it from Louis Vuittons point of view. Just not anyone else's. If it were allowed they'd be forced to reduce their prices which is better for the general public. Just because someone comes up with a good design or idea they shouldn't have all the rights on it forever and be able to charge what they want. Otherwise we would only have 1 brand of televison, 1 brand of motor car etc.
