Fair to say bitcoin fixes this particular large and important class of currency failure, by taking away the power to print it to death?

That it does, but I understand that Bitcoin's deflationary by default nature has also been criticized.

Bitcoin also adds new failure cases such as irreparably losing money through address typos and lost/failed hard drives, not to mention the numerous & exciting failures in DeFi.

Yes, while introducing a host of other very serious problems.
