At the point of:

A potentially more workable definition is that a claim is directed to an abstract idea if all of its elements are either non-specific, address a non-technical problem, or known in the art

I push back with a HARD NO.

Known in the art is NOT an eligibility concern.

Let's not embed the problem in ANY proposed solution.

… as well as push back in that the US Sovereign view is NOT a 'technical arts' view.
