- [4957318-019](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/4957318-019) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- Legal garbage collection is blocked by politics rather than by analysis: outdated or redundant laws remain contentious when they carry symbolic importance for particular constituencies or when repeal would be read as weakening the regulatory framework.

- [4957318-038](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/4957318-038) [mechanism/asserted] -- Political resistance to repeal dissolves under the WDAG model because a rule that loses substantial backing simply diminishes in relevance through the citation mechanism, with no external legislative act of repeal to contest.
  > dynamically reflecting evolving support or opposition to legal precedents through a citation mechanism. If a legal rule loses substantial backing, its relevance diminishes organically within the WDAG framework, without the need for external legislative intervention.
