**Affirmed position.** Mitigating sustainability uncertainty in the United States: the roles of renewable energy transition, digital inclusion, technological innovation, and environmental governance presents the following source proposition: sustainability uncertainty using quarterly data from 2003Q1–2022Q4. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Rulemakers' inability to address disruptive innovation will generate high levels of legal uncertainty and inconsistency that inhibit innovation during technological transition, and technological transition is likely to become a permanent state, so the inhibiting effect becomes permanent too. 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.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-07-31
