## In this selected cohort, buyers often had a defensible reason not to move.
In this manually reviewed selected cohort of 334 active companies, decision-drift evidence appeared in 331 profiles and 801 tagged signals. The pattern was narrower than generic indecision. In selected cases, buyers had defensible reasons to delay when the savings model, governance packet, price metric, migration wedge, or deployment owner was unclear. The paid brief is most useful if you need to know which fallback your buyer can defend internally and what proof would make that fallback less safe.
