People really need to calm down about whether or not the patent was granted. The fact is that the patent office is basically rubber stamping most patents and relying on patent invalidation processes within the legal system to resolve issues.
Not every patent clerk is going to be Albert Einstein. Nor should we expect them to be.

Which is expensive. It should work other way around. Those who file such patents need to spend money to prove that this stuff is really innovative and for some real experts. Current patents system is pure farce.
