Wrong!
A borrowed share is not a real share and isn't even really borrowed. It's a marker that is placed in an account because the person that placed it there is supposed to have located the real share and borrowed it's identity. The real share was never placed in that account and a shorted share has no Certificate of authenticity from the company to back it up and it thus doesn't have any real value as far as the company is concerned, but does have implied value in the market place. No shorted share will ever have any real value as to be certified by the company.
That's not to say the investor can't make money off of that shorted shares implied value by selling it at a higher implied price or worth than the one he or she paid for it, but the shorted share will never give the investor that holds it legal rights to the company, only implied rights.
The only rights that share has are the rights that the person that shorted it chooses to give it. The company has no responsibility for it's existence.
Do you think CMKX is going to give a dividend to a person holding a shorted share? Why do you think they just had this big CERT pull to find the "Legitimate" shareholders and not the ones holding shorted shares?
If anything good happens within a company and they pass it on to the shareholders. You can bet any shareholder that holds a shorted share won't see a dime from the company as the person who shorted that share is the only one responsible for that share as long as it exist.

Your not so bright post:
"Once again you show your complete lack of understanding of how the market works"

"Whenever an investor purchases a share that is the opposite side of a short selling trade the buyer of that share has a 100% legitmate share and all the rights that go with it. He can request a certificate for that share.

The owner of the "Borrowed" share no longer owns it but has the right to get a replacement share back in order to trade it himself or convert it to a certificate and the right to any dividends that may be assigned to the share. "
