“[T]he question is whether there is something in the prior art as a whole to suggest the desirability, and thus the obviousness, of making the combination,’ not whether there is something in the prior art as a whole to suggest that the combination is the most desirable combination available.” In re Fulton, 391 F.3d 1195, 1200 (Fed. Cir. 2004) (quoting In re Beattie, 974 F.2d 1309, 1311 (Fed. Cir. 1992)); see also Winner Int'l Royalty Corp. v. Wang, 202 F.3d 1340, 1349 (Fed. Cir. 2000) (“Tradeoffs often concern what is feasible, not what is, on balance, desirable. Motivation to combine requires the latter.”).
