A new team can move fast for the wrong reasons when inherited website risk, undocumented logic, and hidden dependencies are not captured before work begins.
Performance wins are easy to overstate when teams compare one favorable test run against one unfavorable one and call the work finished.
Domain, DNS, and registrar changes look administrative until ownership gaps, hidden dependencies, or incomplete records turn them into launch-day risk.
A site can outgrow its support model before it looks especially large, especially when integrations, editing demands, and operational risk increase faster than support discipline.

A hosting migration should begin with risk review because uptime, forms, email, search signals, and deployment behavior can all be disrupted by a move that looked simple on paper.
A plugin request can look efficient for one stakeholder while introducing new complexity for performance, security, support, content editing, or analytics elsewhere.
