Suing a DAO: Articulations of Legal Personhood and Service of Process in Recent Litigation presents the following source proposition: litigation that attempts to bring decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) into traditional court systems by grappling with questions of legal personhood and procedural norms. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Overcoming attempts by rational and opportunistic internal and external constituents to game a DAO's governance design requires a duality of incentives, in which actors improve their own utility while their actions simultaneously benefit the whole institution over the long run. 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.
