- [3995709-027](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3995709-027) [design/asserted] -- The CRDAO drives code review prices down through a bidding process and provides open access to anyone who qualifies rather than only members of the code review cartel.
  > The CRDAO provides a decentralized community-driven code review process that utilizes a bidding process on code reviews to drive prices down. It provides open access for code reviews from anyone who qualifies – not just members of the code review cartel.

- [3995709-029](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3995709-029) [design/asserted] -- The CRDAO governance model enables a community policing and audit methodology for code reviews, and those governance and policing functions ensure less duplication of code reviews.
  > The CRDAO also uses a community policing and audit methodology for code reviews. This is enabled by the CRDAO governance model. Moreover, the CRDAO governance and policing functions ensure less duplication of code reviews.

- [3995709-031](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3995709-031) [mechanism/argued] -- By creating a compendium of reviews, the CRDAO generates common code review standards that legacy code review environments lack, and reviewing under a shared set of standards aligns reviewers and the collective on expectations for functionality and quality outcomes.
  > The CRDAO also fills the void left in legacy reviews without common standards. The CRDAO creates a compendium of reviews and through it a common standards for code reviews that are otherwise lacking in legacy code review environments.

- [3995709-032](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3995709-032) [mechanism/asserted] -- Lower cost early feedback from the CRDAO enables risk taking by development teams that wish to move quickly through governance and upgrade processes, which in turn enables accelerated growth and scaling of experimentation.
  > The feedback provided by the CRDAO for the developer community enables risk-taking for dev teams who wish to move quickly through their governance and upgrade process, which in turn enables accelerated growth and scaling of experimentation.

- [3995709-035](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3995709-035) [design/asserted] -- The CRDAO price discovery mechanism enables full price transparency for consumers through the visibility of internal and external bids on job posts, which is unprecedented in a market otherwise dominated by a cartel.
  > price discovery mechanism serves a key public service function in that it enables full price transparency for consumers based on the visibility of the internal and external bids on job posts. This price transparency is unique and unprecedented in a market that is otherwise dominated by a cartel.

- [4529715-037](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/4529715-037) [mechanism/argued] -- A DAO built on reputation rather than a fungible token, as CRDAO is, makes the 51 percent attack nearly impossible and renders sock puppet attacks technically possible but of little influence.
  > CRDAO is fairly attack resistant because of its use of reputation. As a result, sock puppet attacks are technically possible, but would have little influence. CRDAO does not appear to have a fungible token, so the 51 percent attack is nearly impossible.
