It is of no consequence. You can argue that a clash of cultures would: Hinder feasibilility Not be acceptable to some stakeholders Or mean that our potential lack the lack of empathy makes the acquisition unsuitable. It's a bit like PESTEL where you can talk about tax under economics, politics or legal effects. The important thing is that you identify a potential problem with culture clash or with lack of experience handling a takeover rather than how you label it.
