Wild you don't even suggest the patent to be open, like researchers have to do when they are taxpayer funded.

Why is it 'wild'? I said or something else which I think covers it.

By that premise it's 'wild' you didn't suggest the other thousand things they can do.

Maybe we're both just trying to talk about a better way of doing it without being experts.

I think he meant it's wild we've been conditioned to not even think about government takeover of publicly funded assets. Like it still feels like the nuclear option even to Americans who believe they are socialists. Not that your comment was insufficient. I understand why you would feel defensive, the Internet can be a mean place.

It shouldn't even be considered a takeover.
