I tried working this through in an example, and came to a problem: The Issuer is making a 'statement of fact', not just a 'statement'. That is, they are tying their statement to the real world. They are saying that their statement is true. A 'statement of fact' is the same as a claim, in dictionary definitions. A 'statement' isn't. So I agree the word claim could be removed, but only if it's replaced by the same meaning, ie., 'statement of fact' or an equivalent. Steven
