JedRothwell gave a one word response “Nonsense” to my comment, “the only “test” is a customer making money using LENR”
If we are using one word retorts on this site my one word for this topic is “Extraneous”.
The basic question of the law suit is, does the Rossi reactor work? If Rossi proves to the judge or jury that it works, he wins. If Rossi, or anyone else for that matter, simply shows an economic benefit for LENR, they win. If that is done all the tests, demonstrations, presentations are meaningless. Testing for safety and development as with many other utility or economically beneficial inventions, would be made after an economic demand for the invention, (i.e. the airplane).
