I suppose. My quick read of the details makes me think this is no good. It sounds like the primary problem being solved for is the backlog of patent applications not the quality of patents being issued or anything at all related to litigation.
Increasing staff and relieving the pressure of a 3 year backlog on patent applications could result in a more thorough (read: better) job being done and less "obvious" patents approved.
Or it could water down the standards even further as undertrained people come in and rubber stamp whatever's in front of them.
