- [2447306-029](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2447306-029) [mechanism/evidenced] -- SEC flexibility helps filers through a specific mechanism: it authorizes advisers to apply their own internal methodologies when interpreting and answering Form PF questions and to state their own assumptions, rather than forcing them onto an unfamiliar measurement basis.
  > the most significant benefits of SEC flexibility were that respondents believed they were authorized to use their internal methodologies to interpret and respond to questions, and to articulate their assumptions

- [2470008-023](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2470008-023) [failure/evidenced] *(failure mode)* -- Advisers take different approaches and make different assumptions when completing Form PF, which the SEC identifies as a further challenge to the usability of the data.
