You obviously have no knowledge about patent applications. Most if not all patent applications are rejected one or more times before they are approved. Initially the Patent Office does a very broad search and lists many previous patents as their reason for rejection. Actually, only a few of the patents that they reference are even remotely associated with the patent being applied for. As an example, if you applied for a patent for a seedless apple, some of the patents that would be quoted would be for seedless watermelons, seedless cucumbers, seedless oranges, etc. Your patent attorney then has to go back and, one by one, explain why the quoted patent does not apply. After several cycles, the rejections become fewer and fewer until specific wording of the patent applies only to your claim. To say that a patent is worthless because of an initial rejection is very naive.
