Well, there's no response to that level of fanaticism.
But there really is a serious problem with chip companies
claiming their register sets are somehow proprietary.
If the Wall Street crowd had their way, Microsoft would
declare their drop-down menus proprietary, so you'd have
to hire someone to operate your PCs for you.
