Not only new, but also not being something considered trivial or
otherwise not "worthy" of being a patent.

In the German patent history we can observe that even marvellous
inventions have not been granted a patent because the officials
could neither understand nor see the actual or potential future
relevance and usefulness.

(My point was the [non-existing] reach of a German patent in the
USA.)

With a granted patent in Germany you can exploit the commercial
gains yourself or with companies licensing the patents during
the first years after getting the patent.

Besides the commercial aspects the primary point of a patent can
probably be derived from the meaning of its name; Latin "patere",
to be open [for the society], to provide gain for mankind.

(Semantics in popular recognition may have changed given the
prevalence of commercial thinking worldwide.)
