[ALAC] Something we didn't think about.

My understanding is that legally we are in murky water, since we 
seemingly have no formal way to stop the applications that have 
passed the objection, and no way to overturn the rejection, yet all 
three must be treated the same way.

So perhaps you can define what "good sense" dictates?

Hindsight says that we should have insisted that all string 
similarity objections be groups together, suing the sum-total of the 
arguments for and against. But in our collective wisdom, we didn't.
