The code is the policy: Blockchain governance and the authoritarian pursuit of administrative efficiency should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Retroactive public goods funding via results oracles in DAO format fails at the governance layer: even where the core resource distribution concept works, the project remains exposed to decentralized governance attack vectors because the governance design lacks attack resistance. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through blockchain governance, but the defensible response is a qualification until the source text confirms agreement, scope, methods, and limitations.

Affirmed commentary position. This record extends a source-bound scholarly claim but is not a verbatim paper claim.
