This was a flippant statement. IPR stuff is complex and subtle. Personally if I was choosing between two drafts, one with (disclosed) IPR and one without, I would probably choose the draft with no IPR (assuming all else is equal). Of course, there is a chance that there is undisclosed IPR on both -- so perhaps the one with the disclosed IPR is actually better (it shows that someone IPR-aware has considered the issue)! Then there all all the considerations about licensing, FRAND, etc. As I said, complex and subtle…. </no hats> As a chair I will (of course) adopt, progress, etc drafts with IPR.
