The Cost Has Moved Somewhere Else when cost, capacity or timing pressure is absorbed before the issue is formally recognised.

When a constraint absorbs effort, more work is needed just to hold position.

When one person holds critical knowledge, resilience depends on informal workarounds.

The cost was not removed; it was absorbed somewhere less visible.

Progress can continue slowing at the same point even while delivery activity increases.

Commercial pressure often becomes embedded inside delivery before formal visibility appears.

Commercial pressure often forms underneath delivery before formal visibility appears.

Work continues but progress does not improve, and the cost is already being absorbed.

Leadership can carry confidence beyond delivery. The risk appears when reassurance replaces evidence.

Reporting increases while delivery remains unchanged. Cost builds underneath before it becomes visible.
