The Examiner’s reasoning—for not discussing the claim limitations—conflates the hypothetical person of ordinary skill standard with the Office’s notification requirements in carrying its procedural burden. Cf. Ryko Mfg. Co. v. Nu-Star, Inc., 950 F.2d 714, 718 (Fed. Cir. 1991) (“Instead of ascertaining what was subjectively obvious to the inventor at the time of invention, the court must ascertain what would have been objectively obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art at such time.”).
