**Affirmed position.** Further progress in understanding of myofibrillar function in health and disease should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that The SEC's 2004 attempt to reach hedge fund advisers failed as a matter of administrative law: in July 2006 the D.C. Circuit vacated the hedge fund rule in Goldstein v. SEC as an instance of arbitrary rulemaking, because the SEC had no authority to define a term the Advisers Act left undefined. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through dynamic regulation, but the defensible response is a qualification until the source text confirms agreement, scope, methods, and limitations.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-07-31

**Holds when.**

- SEC rulemaking under the Investment Advisers Act
- where the statutory term client is not otherwise defined
- External evidence level: abstract indexed.
- Mapping review tier: mapping review before claim review.
- The literature-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and should not be treated as a settled equivalence.
