I'm all for a model that doesn't award first-to-low-hanging-fruit rent-seeking.

Great, please articulate the actual standard that should apply to implement that distinction. Do you just know it when you see it?

In the current legal environment patents hurt more inventors than they help. You’re opened up to litigation by multi billion dollar multinationals with teams of lawyers who’ll take you out for fun and treble damages because they already own patents broad enough to cover the field

Right. The incentive structures patents were *designed* to create were largely a good idea. The current situation bears basically no relation to it though, and we'd probably be better off with no patent system at all Plus it makes open source antigrav even more obviously correct

Not like selling or offering to sell the product more than a year before filing the patent renders it invalid.... oh wait
