What is this? It seems to be a staple in Canon lens patents... Is it just a translation glitch?

Google search just brings up patents. I have seen it jokingly explained on this site... Have not found a genuine explanation...

It seems to come from Egami's post about the patent. I do not see it in the patent description. It might just be something they made up to be able to track those copying their posts.
