Before embarking on any new program, a careful assessment of the patent landscape should be performed to ensure that the new idea is not infringing on the rights of others. If infringement is suspected, the program can be abandoned, or ways to circumvent the claim(s) need to be considered. This initial examination will ultimately serve as the foundation for a comprehensive “Freedom to Operate” (FTO), which is the legal opinion on whether the process, catalyst, equipment or their combination may be infringing on patents held by others. A careful review of past work can also sometimes point the current program to more productive areas of research. If an idea or concept is completely new to the field, it is important to decide early on whether to file for patent protection or keep it as a closely held trade secret. Keep in mind that patenting a novel idea or process that may take 10 years to commercialize is a double-edged sword — while it does grant you the right of unencumbered use, it also alerts competitors to your plans.

But that is not the issue I was putting forth.  That issue is purely technocratic:  are Trump's policies on tariffs working as respects basic steel?  And if they are (or are not), whose ox is being gored?  Those are interesting issues, as it, in a microcosm, will also determine Trumpian policies on everything else, including the Oil Patch.  And right now, there is some evidence surfacing that Trump's tariffs are having an effect, that they are taking a bite out of dumped steel.  Does that mean that the policy has intellectual rigor?  Of course not.  Indeed, I would argue that nothing that Trump does has intellectual rigor.  But that is not the issue, nor the point; we are asking, what effect does the policy now have, and how do we predict that industry will accommodate the new policy?
