Consortium blockchain for an intelligent transport system presents the following source proposition: The proposed architecture combined with the selected consensus mechanism eliminates the single point of failure issue, contributing to sustainability and survivability of the system. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that No single, fixed, entirely algorithmic policing solution can completely prevent independent nodes in a distributed system from gaming block production to advantage some parties over others. Any consensus protocol that relies on a permanently fixed rule set will therefore be gamed as conditions change. 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: 0.3547.
• The source-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and is published with that limitation.
