Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?
This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Notes -
The government must grant patents, which I wasn't sure was the case. So maybe this has merits. In practice I think you would struggle: the judgement of 'valid against prior art' is somewhat subjective and is also a high bar to clear even when you're getting a normal patent. I suspect the patent office would find it fairly easy to deny your claim. "Design" or 'Marketing' patents are much easier to get.
