Accordingly, even if we were to stipulate that IBM had access to old
SCO's LVM technology, any attempted misappropriation came to naught.

That was a different matter; EVMS vs LVM. And even there Linus was and is wrong. The Linux implementation is "good enough" and linux as an OS can probably live with it. It is just a little sad that "good enough" is enough sometimes, esp. when the alternative is not harder to implement.

But this is getting pretty off-topic.
