I am a former attorney, just not in patent law. I am not saying that paying the issue fee is an indication it works, I am just wondering if they would pay it before the compatibility studies were complete. If it was included in the MIA certification, it would make sense that they waited until the 'all clear' from MHRA before paying. I don't know if they could have made whatever changes to the flaskworks device and made changes to the patent application if the MHRA would have come back with some problems from their inspection. I don't even know if you can makes changes to the device after an issuing of the patent (which is the likely implication of payment) or if you have to file a new patent for the changed device.
