Claims of a private conversation with a single officer of company that is not made public is not really material evidence in any case and neither such a comment proves that there has been no infringement.

ISRG is accused of patent infringement by others so they can be in fact be doing so because mechanical devices do not have millions of methods of working, operating and interacting like software devices so they have smaller degree of freedom for avoiding infringement of existing patents.

"Ethicon filed patent infringement complaints against Intuitive in U.S. courts in 2017 and 2018, arguing the robotic surgery specialist’s EndoWrist and SureForm staplers and instruments used in laparascopic surgery infringe its intellectual property. The trials are set for October 2019 and October 2020."
