**2017**

- [2998097-012](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2998097-012) [mechanism/argued] *(failure mode)* -- The private fund industry's central fear about Form PF was not the filing itself but eventual publicity: if the disclosures ever became public, competitors could reverse engineer fund strategies and largely eliminate managers' ability to generate absolute returns.
