Governance Adaptation in Distributed Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) presents the following source proposition: In a DAO, organizational governance rules are hardcoded in an immutable smart contract. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that DAOs are truly global borderless entities that coordinate agency relationships and limit liabilities via smart contracts, which is what positions them to address the identified flaws in the charitable giving process. 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.

• The response is limited to the retrieved source proposition and mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.
• External evidence level: abstract indexed.
• Mapping review tier: moderate-confidence claim review.
• Primary mapping confidence: 0.418.
• The source-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and is published with that limitation.
