AICOS: A Governance-First Deterministic Decision Infrastructure for Human-Final AI Systems presents the following source proposition: However, they remain fundamentally limited in decision authority, governance, and auditability. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that The code is law paradigm departs from existing legal systems in three linked ways: it shifts authority from sovereign institutions to technical protocols, replaces interpretive flexibility with deterministic enforcement, and substitutes technological neutrality for normative deliberation. 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: 0.3682.
• The source-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and is published with that limitation.
