It was the starting point.

The premise of the originating post was that if 'big pharma' wanted DNAP's technology they would just take it. As far as I know the only things protecting DNAP's rights to their intellectual property are the patent applications.

As the post stated, big pharma could take the technology and modify it slightly to bypass the patent or could simply overwhelm a small company in court.

A patent battle would be DNAP's only defense against such a move and would be potentially disastrous.
