Stakhanovite markman is a pun:
stakhanovets--is a superproductive worker
voroshilovskij strelok--is an ace markman
Stakhanovskij strelok is someone who SHOULD be a great worker but actually makes his factory famous for his "extracurricular" shooting achievements.
I am almost sure the blunder is deliberate. Who is the author?
