**Affirmed position.** AI Disclosure Without Accountability: Paper Compliance and the Governance Limits of Transparency in Scientific Research presents the following source proposition: Although journals and publishers are progressively mandating that authors disclose their use of AI, these policies remain fragmented, non-standardised, and largely unverifiable. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Mandated disclosure does not automatically produce usable public data: although Form ADV requires advisers to disclose chief compliance officer contact information, the SEC dataset omitted it and contained no e-mail addresses, so researchers could not reach the officers responsible for compliance. 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.
