Data Sheet 1_Not just code: a framework for community governance and management in Decentralized Autonomous Organizations.csv presents the following source proposition: However, the lack of established organizational frameworks for DAOs presents significant challenges to their constitution, stability, and longevity. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Decentralized autonomous organizations epitomize organizational decentralization because the first DAO, built purely on code and smart contracts with no incorporation, physical address, or headquarters, entirely removed all traditional control mechanisms employed by principals in agency relationships. The proposed response is an extension: the relationship should remain limited to the retrieved source proposition and the mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.

Affirmed commentary position. This record extends a source-bound scholarly claim but is not a verbatim paper claim.
