Why does churn show up too late?

Form completion rates and conversion steps across the funnel are holding steady or improving. Users are moving through each stage without major drop-off, and the overall flow from initial interest to conversion appears stable and performing as expected in recent reporting periods.

Symptom

At 42% and rising, form completion rate is one of the most encouraging numbers in the funnel.

Cause

The gap between form completion and activation is the mechanism layer of Churn Lag Distortion.

Impact

The economic consequence of Churn Lag Distortion is hidden revenue leakage at scale.
