In a way that has significant importance or serious consequences; as a result or logical conclusion.
From 'consequential' (Latin 'consequentialis,' meaning following logically) plus '-ly.' The word evolved to mean both 'by logical necessity' and 'in an important manner.'
Scientists use 'consequentially' when describing how one discovery leads to another, but it also means 'importantly'—showing how logical flow and significance are linked in English.
