curator note

Regulation precludes parthood; the regulatory process may not be within the regulated process.

editor note

We use 'regulates' here to specifically imply control. However, many colloquial usages of the term correctly correspond to the weaker relation of 'causally upstream of or within' (aka influences). Consider relabeling to make things more explicit
