Re:Supreme Court’s Myriad decision is deeply confused over cDNA by daughart on Thursday June 13, 2013 @08:13PM (#5877554)
It seems clear to me that such a confusing and scientifically-confused decision will not last long. Hopefully this decision paves the way for a more reasonable standard in a few years. Meaningful modification should be the standard. Removing introns, which is done naturally, is clearly not such a modification.

This would have been a much more useful and realistic ruling. They explicitly don't address meaningful modification (they mention it to say that they intentionally do not address it), so I suppose we shall see where they stand on that eventually.
