The example doesn't mention this as a requirement, either. The example only has one "if statement": For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. This if statement seems to be true, and I therefore still don't understand your reasoning. I do appreciate your willingness not discuss these matters, though.
