You haven't provided any sources at all, you just ignored anything I said. So go, your turn. Post a source that says that transferring the patent to the university in 1923 was the wrong decision.
If you know better than the lawyers they consulted back then, prove it. Back it up with something more than just made-up hot air.
Obviously, the patent holders together with their legal council decided back then that it was the better choice because that's what they did. Or are you argueing that it never happend because it's on Wikipedia?
I've directly answered every single comment you made. Every single one. You're literally just making shit up now. You're clearly arguing in bad faith, and I'm not going to engage with you anymore. You've notably also yourself provided ZERO sources for any of your claims that disclaiment would've been the wrong choice. Your literal only source is "they didn't chose it, and they couldn't possibly have been wrong". According to that dumb ass logic, expert financial analysts at Blockbuster deciding to not buy Netflix must've been the right decision.
Come back when you've learned to argue at a level above a C- high school student.
You haven't provided a single source that backs up your claim. I will continue to talk with you once you did.
