Actually, this is what seems to be a standard process in the industry
when you read the headlines.

One doesn't hear about (software) patents when licensing occurs &quot;as
expected&quot;, but when someone in the industry challenges (or is
challenged by) some other actor patent. Because that's the only way to
prove a patent to be ineffective (for various reasons) before it
expires.

(I am not proposing one or the other option - and it's going out of
the initial question in this thread - tmb reframed it well).
