Yes it is. You only present casual correlations, no evidence/proof.
Also, the "how many end up in court"-argument actually goes both ways,
as it may also be an indication of how many can afford to challenge
patents. This especially harms "the little guy" and startups. They
have no chance, Drew Curtis explains this quite well

The question of innovation and patents should be answered using
academic standards, not courtroom standards.

I'll stop feeding now though.
