**Affirmed position.** Connecting pancreatic islet lipid metabolism with insulin secretion and the development of type 2 diabetes should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Although the extent and causes of rulemaking ossification remain empirically uncertain, increased legal and evidentiary burdens on regulatory authorities are the consensus explanation for the slowdown in agency rulemaking. 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.**

- United States federal and state agency rulemaking
