If it wasn't for bankruptcy law, then when someone doesn't pay back a loan, there's NOTHING stopping the lender from jumping into the bank account of the borrower and taking money from him, and garnishing wages.
An MCA default cannot garnish wages. If the business goes bankrupt, there's technically nothing that can be done. They bought the future income, and there turned out to be no future income.
Let's use the stock market as an example:
If I lend money to a farm, then if they don't pay me back, I have a lien on the farm. I don't care if their business does well or not. They could choose not to pay me, there's not "guarantees" in life, but I have tools through the courts to take it out from them.
If I buy futures on their cattle stock, if their cattle does well, I get a portion. If not, I'm out of my money. Nothing to do. No courts, no liens.
In most cases, to not be a loan, an MCA has to mimic a purchase of futures. Otherwise it would be usurious loan.

I dare you. Put my statement through ChatGPT and see if I'm mostly correct. I'm dumbing it down, and there are extra points to consider, but that's the basic gist.
WOW sir, you proved my point bankruptcy filing chapter 11 dissolves Unsecure Loans. Emerge Law considers MCA Loan a unsecure loan that can be dissolved under a chapter 11 filling. Please see source below.
