It is a simple & obvious enough thing so that it should convince the MP that software
patents *are* a bad idea, many still believe that they are really OK since they protect
the hard work (== investment) of a company.
The MP will thus be better informed (ie thinks the 'right' way) in debates/... on the issue.
