The market doesn't care how good your stuff might be as compared to someone else's if both are mandatory

You are using the wrong point in time. The value of a patent should be accorded it at the time the standard is being set - how essential is it then? If the courts cannot recognize this then they are setting the stage to destroy the standardization process as we know it. The companies with the really essential patents will refuse to play - after all, why should they if their property will not be accorded accurate worth post facto.
