I agree, the current system is flawed too. However, under the "No new software patents" policy, lets say company A has x number of preexisting patents, and a new company wants to get into the field, they can't leverage and of company A's innovations, but company A could use anything company B comes up with however they like. That seems like a dealbreaker for any new company trying to raise capital.
