Why do people comment on things like patents when they don't know anything about them?

  That phenomenon isn't limited to patents. That just happens to be an area you're knowledgeable enough in to recognize obvious falsehoods. Imagine the other topics you (we) read on this site that we aren't savvy in.

    I generally don't comment on things if I haven't informed myself about it. I'm here for takes by experts, not people who are making guesses based on ignorance disguised as informed opinion.

  I know how a patent works - I just mean the purpose isn’t to teach others how it works for the benefit of others, disclosure is the mechanism to protect others from implementing it.
