Not every dynamic system is self correcting, in fact if the hypothesis is that a system is ‘stable’ in that sense the next step in the discussion should bear on: - the forces in action and their relative directions - the regime within which we could consider dynamic changes to be stable - the time range we should expect the system to converge to the hypothesized equilibrium state Most importantly in my opinion, is not assuming that a stable regime exists within a time/space envelope that corresponds with a physically achievable state in the real system we are trying to approximate. I would put that sort if assumption into the category of ‘common falacies.’
