The Evidence-Safety Gap in Cryptographic Agent Governance: Compliance-Complete Failures and the Limits of Receipt-Based Accountability presents the following source proposition: They do not, by themselves, prove that the action's effect is safe. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that High quality and effective preemptive remedial measures are themselves part of good corporate governance and can help a corporation avoid investigation, prosecution, and the execution of a non or deferred prosecution agreement. 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.
