So it appears that what you're suggesting is that the J2.5 got ALL their chips from Intel, AMD, HP or some other(s) already MMP-licensed chip supplier.

Your last post (to which this replies) did respond to my suggested approach for "backing into" some sort of validation of your conjecture that we settled for peanuts with the J2.5 because of the pending expected result of LG/Quanta, in that subsequent licensees would have only "gotten off the hook" if they got ALL of their chips from a prior MMP licensee. But this works both ways..... Did/do the J2.5 get ALL of their chips exclusively from Intel, AMD, HP and/or some other(s) prior MMP licensee chip manufacturer?

Get my point? Your conjecture only holds water if the answer to the above question is "yes". Though I do believe/KNOW that Intel particularly was a high-volume supplier, I find it difficult to believe that Intel was their sole source supplier (for one thing, from a logistics perspective, in a high volume industry you typically want to foster multple suppliers), but they could have been. I do have to add that volume would be a consideration (i.e., perhaps other suppliers at low volume, hence lesser magnitude of infringement).

Just a friendly argument.....
