> Filing a patent suit against someone over a piece of Apache licensed software means the plaintiff loses the grant to patents held by other contributors to that software

Right, but the "right to use" permission is granted as part of the patent license not the copyright license. You're right that I misspoke and the copyright license is not touched, but the effect is similar AFAICS.

> This is also untrue. Your ability to file a countersuit for other patents is explicitly protected by the React grant.

Ah, you're right. I did read the latest version of the document, I guess that sentence must've just slipped by me. My point about asymmetry still stands though.

> Either better or the same, depending on your values, but definitely not worse.

I believe that the asymmetry does not make it better. You could argue it's the same, but I still am not sure I agree.
