No one knows how actual PLC curve will look like – will depend on product, industry and environment!

Failure to recognize PLC stage will lead to wrong decisions; such decisions might lead to Pygmalion effect

(self-fulfilling prophesy); for example, stopping investment in a product thinking that it is going to reach

decline phase will actually lead to the decline!
