First paragraph -- doesn't surprise me in the least. Of course he deeply believes in patents, licensing and royalties on ideas.
Second paragraph -- he does such a good job of explaining why I believe that FRAND is now so unattractive that nobody will ever want to have FRAND obligations ever again. Especially since FRAND patents are for something that is a real invention, a product of research, engineering and lab work; not the result of focus groups, ordinary tasks assigned to a developer, or an aesthetic idea from one of several choices of orifices of some designer.
