Is RH actually acting as an investment adviser in these transactions, or just a discount brokerage? If the latter, generally not a fiduciary, I think?

What I was trying to communicate is that RH could be liable in a situation where it approves people for margin or L2 options accounts who have no business accessing those kinds of products. RH may benefit from increased order flow, but is not permitted to cultivate order flow that is clearly inappropriate for its clients.
