A Survey of Ethereum Smart Contract Security: Attacks and Detection presents the following source proposition: With the increasing interest in smart contracts, security has become a serious problem. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that A smart contract is computer program code that enables the verification, execution and enforcement of specific terms and conditions of a contractual arrangement. 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.
