No, you've got it backwards. I was saying that the act of complaining that Firefox *isn't* supporting a patented format is sort of like complaining that some business *isn't* doing business with the water-polluting company. That is, that company is causing you a minor practical inconvenience by not selling the stuff from the water-polluting company you like. If you complain about this company taking a stand against the water-polluting company, you're being disruptive, and you're also being disruptive if you're complaining about Firefox taking a stand against software patents.
