Making clearer in the law the exclusion of interfaces cannot hurt.
The clearer the better.
On the other hand, an interface can be new. For example, a new
instruction in a processor. Yet in this cases, the monopolistic
effects are more important that the need to encourage innovation. It
is not posible to sell a processor/operating system if there are no
applications available for it; therefore a processor needs to be
compatible with existing popular processors in order to succeed.
