Does the analysis realistically assess what government agencies, resources, and expertise would be needed to implement these policies? Are the identified implementation challenges specific and grounded in understanding of how similar policies have worked (or failed) in practice? Does the submission adequately consider bureaucratic, technical, and coordination complexities involved in enforcement? How well does the analysis account for real-world constraints like budget limitations, regulatory capture, and inter-agency coordination?

Does the analysis identify specific ways the policies could fail to prevent ASI development or be circumvented by determined actors? How thoroughly does the submission examine edge cases, loopholes, or unintended consequences that could undermine the 20-year goal? Does the assessment consider different threat models (state actors, rogue researchers, corporate actors) and how policies address each? Are the identified failure modes realistic and significant, or primarily theoretical edge cases?

Does the submission cite relevant historical examples of similar policies (nuclear non-proliferation, export controls, dual-use technology regulation) to support its arguments? Are claims backed by empirical data, documented case studies, or credible expert analysis rather than speculation? How well does the analysis draw lessons from comparable regulatory domains to assess likely outcomes? Does the submission avoid making unsupported assertions about what "would" or "could" happen without evidence?
