US ITAR/USML periodic review: narrowing scope, shifting jurisdiction to Commerce

State Department (DDTC) rulemaking under AECA §38(f) and NDAA FY2024 §1345's mandatory periodic review of the US Munitions List — actions that remove specific articles or categories from ITAR control because they no longer warrant a critical-military-advantage designation, typically reclassifying them to the less restrictive EAR/Commerce Control List jurisdiction. Distinct from the arms-embargo architecture theme (which tracks country-level D:5 embargo-destination status) and from emerging-tech export controls (which tightens 0Y521-series controls) — this theme is the mirror-image liberalising arc: technology-by-technology narrowing of what ITAR still covers.
