Then fix up that value on failure, if things fail you should reset it
back to a "known good state", right?  And what's wrong with resetting
all of the values anyway, wouldn't that be the correct thing to do?

I don't know, what do you think is best to do?  You are the one having
problems and will need to fix any bugs that your changes will cause :)
