Even if abolition is optimal (at this point, that does seem to be the case), a more applicable and serviceable revision is preferable over what exists. You have outright denied that abolishing patents could be an improvement, let alone optimal, a few times at least. If you can show me how you arrived at that, it would save me some trouble I'm having with this stuff myself. I'm not going to obligate you to sharing or claim it's a burden you bare, but rather, if you could help me figure it out, please do.
