Life cycle models cannot capture abstract concepts like trust.
Evidence
Life cycle models are based on an assumption that the process of development occurs similarly to building blocks, in which case earlier stages provide the foundation for later stages (Kimberly et al. 1980). These models often vary in terms of number and content of stages, the naming of which usually adheres to the process of human life, including birth, growth, maturity, and decline. Due to a strong relationship with living being a metaphor, life cycle models are not suitable for abstract concepts such as trust. — TOMASZ OLEJNICZAK, Development of Trust in Low-Trust…, 188
