If it were simple why aren't these lawsuits being thrown out the front door? Why isn't FRAND turning out to be the watertight defence it ought to be? (serious question I would love to know the answer to, as these FRAND related lawsuits seem to keep coming up over and over again).

FRAND has no precise legal definition and has not had any reasonable test in court that would establish precedent, as far as I am aware.
