If you believe the above, then it follows that all those Kingdoms in history that used unshod horses were lost! Count all the horses used in all conflicts and tell me the percentage shod to unshod, particularly pre industrial revolution.
On that point, small having a large affect, the Domino affect can demonstrate that an extremely small domino with gradually increasing sized dominoes (forgot the ratio) can eventually topple an extremely large domino. I mean atomic size up to space size. This is an example that demonstrates that extremely small potential energy can harness very large potential energy.
Many many more examples small creating big (e.g. atomic bomb) but if just a small idle jet is blocked, and nothing else is abnormal included operator input, then the chance for any damage is extremely small if not impossible. Yes big difference to OP, as afterall his engine now responds to his request. The engine on it's own will misfire and if there is enough energy stored in the flywheel may again, but most likely, as in this case, the engine ceases to operate.
