JTD,
I'm extremely sorry, but I still don't fully understand your argument. I understand that you're against the clauses given in section 4.11.6 ([...]The claim orienting towards a "process/method" should contain a hardware or machine limitation.[...]), but your point does not "jump out" from what you've written.
You should probably try a different approach in articulating yourself.
The definition of general purpose and special purpose hardware is very blury. Arguments can be turned around to bolster the need for software patents, if not formulated carefully.
Anyways, are you coming to Antop Hill for the stakeholder meeting tomorrow?
Saurabh.
