Many countries don't recognize software patents, and the ones that do have some strict rules about what patents are valid. So, are you sure that this is a slam dunk? You don't seem to have any concept that it might be ruled invalid.



It’s a lot easier to accomplish this under the conditions I outlined above. That’s all I’m saying. People have gotten away with worse.


Many countries have strong patent protections and no software patents. If you wanted to say "have software patents" instead of "strong patent protections", it would make a bit more sense.
