I think the association with patents is not common. A lot of words are associated with patents, but novel is used mostly in contexts that don't have to do with patents. The legal profession repurposes a lot of words to give them special meaning but non-lawyers do not care. See e.g. https://www.oxforddictionaries.com/us/definition/american_english/novel#nav2 (click "more example sentences"). --- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/w3c/webcomponents/issues/434#issuecomment-196527652
