IMHO if Rossi did indeed discover/create a new catalyst then he has new art and it would be patent-able. I think this is part of Rossi's misdirection and why Defkalion has little to fear; either the catalyst is nothing new or Rossi;s ownership is in question.
If this is the case I feel for Rossi in that he has opened the door but might not be able to go through it.
