Which is actually understandable if you've never been in a position to have produced something for which copyright granted a noticeable benefit, yet have been in a number of positions where you have either seen or felt the negative repercussions of breaking copyright.

I was expecting a "process for eating a can of soup" type patent.

If you read the details, the patent claims to disclose an invention distinct from existing maglev train designs.
