Pfff - you are nitpicking. 1. The point that ianG made is clearly understood: He/she is condemning Certicom's, Dan Brown's and Scott Vanstone's attempts to patent the backdoor (to invent and then to patent it). ianG has also tried to raise the dilemma among all of us that are following this list what Dan Brown is doing in IETF? 2. The point that you are doing is also clearly understood: By nitpicking you are trying to clear the amoral actions of Certicom, Dan Brown and and Scott Vanstone.
