Legislative Voting and Accountability presents the following source proposition: Legislatures are the core representative institutions in modern democracies. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Decentralized voting pools can become supplemental voting systems that help overcome the legitimacy deficit of representative democracies, but installing them as upgrades to existing representative democracies would require constitutional or democratic support that is dubious at best. 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.
