I wouldn't bet on that.
I've fixed 3 'runaways' including one in marine radar. I could tell you a story or two about that. I turned a turkey into a significant commercial success. There was a restructuring going on at the time. The Technical Director was being promoted to Managing Director, his Technical Manager was becoming Technical Director and quite a few of the R&D staff suggested I should apply for the open Technical Manager post (staff of about 40).
I was VERY flattered.
