by the time other companies began manufacturing, Earth's atmosphere was already seeded with microscopic quantities of paroxetine hemihydrate from GSK's manufacturing plants, which meant that anyone trying to manufacture the original polymorph would find it transformed into the still-patented version

@petes_bread_eqn_xls @ephemeromorph That would be a fascinating legal case study. I'd expect infringing on a patent would require some intent on even creating a given patented thing (not necessarily being aware of the patent though). A compound randomly synthesizing in my room without my conscious action being a legal liability sounds beyond bonkers.
