“There are all sorts of arguments that are used to be basic. I'm not infringing your copyright, I'm not infringing your trademark because of this difference. You may be right at the end. But guess what, to get to the end, the result that you want, you just spent a whole lot of rebus to get there and you don't even know if you're going to do it right.”
