Etymology
'permissively-managed' originates from the combination of 'permissive' and 'manage,' where 'permissive' comes from Latin 'permissivus,' meaning 'allowing,' and 'manage' from Italian 'maneggiare,' meaning 'to handle.'
'permissive' changed from the Latin word 'permissivus' and 'manage' from the Italian word 'maneggiare,' eventually forming the modern English term 'permissively-managed.'
Initially, 'permissive' meant 'allowing,' and 'manage' meant 'to handle,' evolving into the current meaning of 'managed with leniency.'
