“Inherent anticipation requires that the missing descriptive material [be] ‘necessarily present,’ not merely probably or possibly present, in the prior art.” Trintec Indus., Inc. v. Top-U.S.A. Corp., 295 F.3d 1292, 1295 (Fed. Cir. 2002) (quoting In re Robertson, 169 F.3d 743, 745 (Fed. Cir. 1999) (citation omitted)). “The mere fact that a certain thing may result from a given set of circumstances is not sufficient [to establish inherency.]” In re Oelrich, 666 F.2d 578, 581 (CCPA 1981). (emphasis added).

The Examiner concludes that “[a] change in form or shape is generally recognized as being within the level of ordinary skill in the art, absent any showing of unexpected results.” Id. (citing In re Dailey, 357 F.2d 669 (C.C.P.A. 1966)).

See In re Dailey, 357 F.2d at 672–73.Cf. In re Gal, 980 F.2d 717, 719  (Fed. Cir. 1992) (finding that the claimed structure and prior art structure “achieve different purposes” and, as a result, the claimed structure was not a matter of design choice).
