Odd that OP would give a grim warning without an equation.
I graduated in 1991 with BSEE and the curriculum was a rush to get us to diffeq and linear systems because 90% of the remaining three years of classes were taught using S and Z plane analysis. My engineering professors were incapable of introducing a concept without starting with a differential equation.[1]
For the author to spend so much time explaining control theory, then sort of give up on it, was disappointing. Ironically, knowledge of control systems and warnings about them should pervade the thought process of the thinker and prevent them from making grandiose claims. Perhaps OP only has a topical knowledge but can spin a good yarn.
[1] I'm a career programmer, but I always start my thoughts with a d/dt: whether it's an RTOS project, a graph GraphQL endpoint, or USB driver. I guess "if all you have is a hammer..."
