@rotfarm @revengeday That's not how that works. Because physics, water ice requires a stupid amount of energy to melt, many orders of magnitude more than the radiative or exhaust heat of a car passing by. To melt some amount of ice (just to melt it, so it's still at 0C but now liquid) takes about as much heat as heating the same amount of liquid water to 80C would take. (See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy_of_fusion )
De-icing of roads works exclusively by salt lowering water's freezing point.
Here is another case where the Unified Patent Court has declined to grant a provisional injunction, not being convinced that the patent is infringed. It is striking that the prosecution history (specifically the claim wording before amendment during prosecution) is used as a guide to claim meaning.
It will be interesting whether patentees go on with an action on the merits having lost substantively at this stage.
