**Affirmed position.** DAO-FL: Enabling Decentralized Input and Output Verification in Federated Learning with Decentralized Autonomous Organizations presents the following source proposition: The lack of transparency and security in traditional FL systems can be attributed to the centralized validation of LMs and GM updates. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Transparent DAO governance lets platforms compensate contributors according to demonstrated expertise and reputation, which mitigates the exploitative labor practices associated with centralized annotation services. 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.
