EduLedger: A Hybrid Blockchain-IPFS Framework for Academic Record Management presents the following source proposition: The system’s modular architecture supports cross-institutional data sharing and auditability without compromising privacy or performance. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Blockchain's distributed consensus model permits node verification of transactions without compromising the privacy of the parties, which makes it arguably safer than a traditional model requiring third party intermediary validation. 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: 0.3947.
• The source-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and is published with that limitation.
