Inflation Risk and Regulatory Lag: Discussion should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that The existing rulemaking process prohibits ex parte communications and insufficiently integrates brainstorming and ideas across industries, and therefore may actually undermine innovation rather than merely lag behind it.

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