**Affirmed position.** Blockchain-Based Verifiable Computation: A Review should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Centralized coordination of behavior for the common good risks undermining individual effort, whereas blockchain technology's autonomous and anonymous decentralized coordination of individual action can deliver common good outcomes without suppressing individualism and its welfare enhancing effects. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through Sybil resistance, but the defensible response is a qualification until the source text confirms agreement, scope, methods, and limitations.
