Not all broken systems were designed to self-correct

Not all self-correcting designs can mission-accomplish

A broken but not-designed-for-self-correction system stays broken, then fails, early, and is a blessing

A broken and designed-for-self-correction system tries to self-correct, but if fails, may instead succeed in giving rise to a working-again but very-different system.

Democratic Germany tried to self-correct, and the newer system was very different.

Tsar's Russia was not exactly designed to self-correct, and the old system was replaced by a new one in any case. The result, while different from that result in Germany, was difficult to distinguish from the German effort at a practical level.
