But you can imagine QCOM agreeing to a clause that would allow Nokia to infringe for a year and a half with no consequences?

Yes, for two reasons....

1) If there was an explicit clause that voided the option due to Nokia infringing, Qualcomm would have stated that in an investor conference. They are only making the argument to the analysts because it is going to be dependent on getting a court to agree.

2) Could you have imagined that there was no punishment for violating the non-disclosure rule? TI's exec told the world about the royalty-free cross license and there was no penalty.
