> no intention [to] license it to others

The companies that are doing the suing here are — as I understand it here — are suing to force a licensing deal.

the issue is that there's no knowledge transfer from the patent holder to the developer, in these cases. there's no causal link from the patent to the development

the (forced) licensing deal comes after the development, and hinders it. and it's not to protect development of a related idea, either
