If they were to explicitly state that as a defence, then the entire 40 hours
allocated to Samsung would be teaching the jury the equivalent of MIT course
MATH 18.602 Mathematics for Computer Science
(http://courses.csail.mit.edu/6.042/spring12/) with no time left to explain its
relevance, much less go through the patent, or any of the other defences they
have.

This is a multiplayer, non-zero sum game. If patents fall, so do the barriers to
entry into the market, meaning new players don't have to pay for developing
standards and such. More players bring the price down towards the actual
incremental cost, and probably reduce the total profits available in the world
of cell phones.
And, if you, as an established player, and proceed to invalidate all software
patents, yours probably go first, so you lose in the short run as competitors
freely copy you and still drag you into court over their patents.
