That does seem to be what's being proposed in the original post. The last line isn't "stop this indefinitely" it's "stop this until the patents are made public"
Okay, that's reasonable IF you're implementing a solution at the same time. Make it a legally standard part and have the manufacturers pay the patent holder for all I care until then. The stopgap measure shouldn't be 'keep letting people lose fingers until we settle this'.
Oh yeah, the caveat is that if you're gonna run this play you have to actually work to get that law passed. You can't just use the fact that a safety regulation would create a monopoly to not do anything
It wouldn't even bother me if they just like, made them cut a government contract style deal where they'd make and develop it under subsidy until they get a law passed. That's some wonk shit, but I'm trying to consider a doable thing under lib world to keep fingers on hands until it's settled. Cause in the end, does anyone operating these machines give a flying fuck who's getting the money for what's keeping their hands attached to.their arms more than that it's fucking there in the first place? Instal tthe damn sensors and then argue about it.
