Comment on An embarrassing failure of the US patent system: Nintendo's latest patentsparent

Seems reasonable to me, yea

It's probably a nonstarter for the current year, given that you'd need to pay for substantially more patent examiners, and better trained patent examiners (even if it does ultimately come a lot from increased fees). Or maybe fewer patent examiners but much more highly trained ones? I'm not sure how that would pan out.

But it would be very cool if the gap between "granted patent" and "proven useful patent" was closed substantially.
