Is that a question? If the name of your's command is the same as AutoCAD command, or the same as command registering from other arx/dll and your's arx-file register command after other application with the same name - your's registered command will be called instead of other command. With help of acedGetCname you can test defined command with the same name or no:

  bool IsCommandDefined(ACHAR *name)
  {
    ACHAR *result = NULL;
    bool ret = (acedGetCName(name,&result) == RTNORM);
    delete result;
    return ret;
  }
  
  void TESTCMDNAME(void)
  {
    ACHAR name[512];
    if (acedGetString(FALSE,L"\nType cmd name: ",name) == RTNORM) {
      acutPrintf(L"\nCommand <%s> is%s defined", name, IsCommandDefined(name)? L"" : L" not");
    };
  }
