Ah, true when you include the engineers in the loop I suppose. But then that becomes a vague term for any system where engineers fix problems after some load/failure testing.

When I think of anti fragile systems, truly adaptive algorithms come to mind that learn from a failure. For example, an algorithm that changes the leader in a global leader election system based on the time of day because one geographic region of the network is always busier depending on time of day and latency to the leader impacts performance.
