  Imagine you are an engineer at Apple who has this (reasonably obvious) idea. And you tell your boss "this should not be fucking patentable". Your boss agrees. Next year Apple implements this feature and they are hit by a lawsuit from some company that patented this "fucking unpatentable" feature.
  
  You and your boss have some explaining to do.
