What if the production cycle is longer than 5 years?
> the patent holder has listed a process and conditions under which the patent can be licensed, there exists a mediation process in case an applicant deems the fees/conditions to be excessive, and there are no complaints filed at the regulatory agency about unfair treatment
This sounds like something that everyone would dispute, and there would be a years-long waiting list for mediation.
I agree with you in principle, but I just think it wouldn't work.
