So one must - no matter how futile it is - argue the point in front of the
Federal Circuit. Then one can be sure if the Supremes accept your appeal,
you'll get to discuss the abstract - and only abstract - nature of
software.

My reaction (probably not a good one) would have been to ask the Judge "do
you agree that maths is not patentable? do you agree that a list of instructions
is not patentable?".
Hopefully she will respond "yes". To which my response would be that
programmers assure me that software is a list of instructions, and
mathematicians assure me that software is a mathematical proof. If she answers
back, ask her to explain the difference between software, and a proof or a list
of instructions.
