CEO loved the idea of getting a patent because he thought it would make us look impressive and it would defend us in advance if someone else made a similar thing and tried to attack us with their own BS patent.
Makes me sad when i consider the comparison with my grandfather's multiple rounds of back and forth with the PTO fighting to finally get a patent on a mechanical device. Comparitively yes, they rubber stamp software patents because they clearly dont understand the art. They kind of understand more traditional (aka real) inventions.

Out of curiosity, why did you get the patent?
