**Affirmed position.** Enforcement of smart contracts in cross-jurisdictional transactions presents the following source proposition: Although the subject is multidisciplinary, the aspect of enforcement in cross-jurisdictional transactions from legislative analysis does not require a technical method to be analysed, hence the adoption of this method. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that A Code is Law assumption remains necessary for machine-scale commerce, because the multiplicity of options in a dynamically changing market demands instantaneous legal enforcement without waiting for a centralized human response. 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.
