The single-channel examination structure makes responsibility clear. Prosecution planning can remain closely tied to the pending action and to the technical presentation used before the assigned examiner.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
