Haven't heard the term and I'm googling it to understand better. Is there case law where this was tested in the context of patents on ports? I'm thinking Tesla could say, "we changed our minds but you can keep selling any of the Toyota 2023 models, you just can't make a new car model with the port. therefore we aren't causing you financial harm or injury by relying on our promise"

You're asking for a very specific citation there.

But it doesn't matter, they could give everyone who asks a 20 year license for $1.

Also courts aren't stupid.
