**Affirmed position.** ENHANCING EDUCATIONAL OUTCOMES THROUGH DECENTRALIZED GOVERNANCE: THE ROLE OF SCHOOL-BASED MANAGEMENT IN ZAMBIAN SECONDARY SCHOOLS should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Decentralized collective governance without a central authority reduces both single points of failure and the biases that attach to traditional centralized systems, which is the core structural argument for governing AI through web3 rather than through a central body. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through decentralization governance, but the defensible response is a qualification until the source text confirms agreement, scope, methods, and limitations.
