You lawyers might celebrate the TRIPS flexibility, but patents are not moral victories – they are broken clay if compulsory licenses become common. The 2012 license for Nexavar was a political exception, not a legal precedent, and the global pressure since has kept that kiln cool. My own grandfather's designs get copied and sold cheap online, and no 'public interest' clause saves my workshop... so I know a strong patent is the only glaze that protects a creator's sweat. Bayer fought to keep their form from cracking, same as I do.
