**Affirmed position.** Technological Unemployment presents the following source proposition: Until recently, it was hard to study the threat of technological unemployment in the core models in economics. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that In a quantum economy, core economic variables such as supply, demand, price, and utility are not fixed quantities but quantum states that can occupy several configurations at once until an observation or measurement resolves them into one value. 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.
