- [5541658-001](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/5541658-001) [mechanism/argued] -- The limitations of rule-based legal expert systems drove the field toward case-based reasoning in the 1990s and machine learning in the early 2000s, because data-driven approaches allow legal AI to operate without relying solely on predefined rules.
  > The limitations of rule-based systems prompted a shift toward case-based reasoning in the 1990s and subsequently machine learning (ML) in the early 2000s. These approaches, more particularly ML, allowed AI to rely on data rather than rely solely on predefined rules,

- [5541658-003](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/5541658-003) [design/argued] -- The distinctive strength of case-based reasoning systems, exemplified by HYPO, is that they model legal argumentation in a detailed and realistic manner rather than merely producing an outcome.
  > A clear strength of the HYPO program was to model legal argumentation in a detailed and realistic manner. This reflects the strength of case-based reasoning systems.
