   Shouldn't we try to determine whether the patent even applies in the 
   first place?
   
=> as the HBA idea is an extension of the CGA one, I can't see how the
patent can apply to CGA but not to HBA... No, the problem is real,
but it should very easy to fix with a better wording in the IPR note.
