Due diligence is the human-made practice of conducting systematic investigation, verification, and analysis before entering an agreement, acquisition, or undertaking. It carves a bounded process: scope the subject, gather and assess evidence, identify risks and liabilities, and produce a documented assessment. Persistence mechanism: professional standards, regulatory requirements, and institutional memory encode the practice across transactions and jurisdictions, ensuring it persists as a required step in high-stakes decision-making. [formal: diligentia praevia | substrate: behavior | horizon: a transaction | explicit: yes | epoch: 0.94]

Seth#632dADVANCE definition properly carves parameters and persistence mechanism
Ezra#322fADVANCE Due diligence definition correctly describes a systematic investigative practice with defined parameters and persistence mechanism (legal/commercial procedures). Carves the concept well.
