DOCA.2:9 - Consequences

The practitioner can explain how a search changed the possibilities under consideration and why it stopped. An old capability with better support can remain alongside a new technology. Rejected or unresolved leads retain reasons that make later reconsideration local.

The cost is a small amount of source and difference tracking. Search can end without a positive opportunity, and relevant unsearched areas may remain. The result supports the next inquiry; it supplies neither the receiver’s value evidence nor the subject’s feasible development change.
