It's covered in the linked document. To paraphrase:

1. It includes some extraneous things such as some CSS stuff. 2. There is some evidence that some of the canvas api may be covered by patents.

true, but canvas does have some css things in it, such as, specifically, it uses the Color css submodule.

Oh yeah, good point.
