Profit-Ranked Governance and the Innovation Commons: An Agent-Based Model of Patient-Capital Selection in AI-Adopting Sectors presents the following source proposition: However, asymmetric productivity gains from artificial intelligence (AI) adoption produce short-run profit advantages for short-horizon strategies, disrupting this balance. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Well-capitalized centralized incumbents can outpace decentralized entrants in user acquisition by leveraging existing customer bases and brand recognition, so decentralized startups must show clear advantages in compensation, transparency, or data protection to win adoption. 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.

Affirmed commentary position. This record extends a source-bound scholarly claim but is not a verbatim paper claim.
