Blockchain and Self-Sovereign Identity: A Healthcare Use Case presents the following source proposition: Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs) give patients greater control over their clinical data. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Web3 based self sovereign identity gives individuals, and potentially AI systems themselves, control over their digital identities without a central authority, which in AI governance means AI entities can hold verifiable credentials. 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: 0.4221.
• The source-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and is published with that limitation.
