This represents regulatory capture where industry interests appear to override public health protection in PFAS regulation. Rule_of_law (3): weakening enforcement mechanisms undermines equal application of environmental law. Civil_rights (2): PFAS contamination disproportionately affects vulnerable communities, and lack of penalties perpetuates environmental injustice. Capture (4): policy design that explicitly avoids punishing polluters is strong evidence of industry influence over regulatory process. Corruption (3): structural corruption where regulatory framework serves regulated entities rather than public interest. Policy_change mechanism adds 15% modifier; federal scope adds 20%. Severity: moderate durability (1.1) as regulatory frameworks persist, high reversibility (0.95) as rules can be changed, slight precedent concern (1.05) for future environmental enforcement. Final A-score 23.3 indicates meaningful constitutional concern around regulatory integrity. B-score 11.9 reflects moderate outrage potential around environmental issues but limited viral characteristics. Delta of +11.4 clearly places this on List A as substantive governance failure with limited hype inflation.
