It feels like there should be a change in international IP laws to address patents as wide as this. I mean, in this case, even without expert analysis, I feel these network layer patterns can quite easily be likened to the widely used Gang of Four design patterns, or perhaps other concepts that have a highly technical basis. Like lenses, for example.
More precisely, network layer pattern descriptions surely lie in the class of a fact or discovery - https://www.prv.se/en/patents/applying-for-a-patent/before-the-application/what-cannot-be-patented/ https://www.prv.se/en/patents/applying-for-a-patent/before-t... - which should make the claim close to unenforceable at any level.
Unless the patent we're discussing covers a very specific implementation, which is uniquely efficient.
