**Affirmed position.** Disentangling Disclosure and Enforcement: The Case of Hedge Fund Regulation should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Neither obvious remedy for the increased sales pressure created by the Rule 506 amendment works well: added disclosure obligations such as filing all Rule 506 sales documents with FINRA or the SEC may burden issuers inappropriately, while litigation based enforcement may not reach all offenders equally or appropriately. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through hedge fund regulation, but the defensible response is a qualification until the source text confirms agreement, scope, methods, and limitations.
