 I'm not sure anyone in the room actually believes the fundamental premise that this lawsuit is founded on, which is that APIs are actually copyrightable

but that's what the law was determined to be, so here we are

the expert witness is an economist and can only testify to the value of using Java APIs on market forces afaict. The argument as far as I could get it from twitter was that 'a java phone was inevitable' and that Android shipping with unlicensed APIs stole and killed the market from Sun/Oracle's grasp. Showing poo poo java phones helps disprove that point.

The other opinions like "the API is essential to the technological stack" are kind of pointless when they come with the caveat of "as an economist, I ..."

afaict from twitter Jaffe more or less said "as an economist, i think that the 37 APIs make up an intrinsic part of java" which is fairly :psyduck:
