What comes back after a thing is done. From the Latin for rebound - a result is the leap returning, not the leap.
Latin resultare (to spring back, rebound), a frequentative of resilire (re- back + salire, to leap); the outcome named as a rebound from an action rather than the action itself.
What comes back once a process has run its course — an outcome standing apart from the steps that produced it, ready to be read on its own.
