The antonyms for the phrase "considers closely" are to overlook, to neglect, to ignore, to dismiss, to disregard, to abandon, to forget, to omit, to skimp, and to skimp over. Overlooking means to fail to notice or observe, neglect means to fail to care for properly, while ignoring means to refuse to acknowledge or consider. Dismissing and disregarding both mean to reject or refuse to attend to, while abandoning and forgetting are more extreme, meaning to give up or leave behind altogether. Omitting and skimping both mean to leave out, but the latter suggests doing so inadequately, and skimping over means to pay little attention to.
