I wouldn’t call the “without suffering from it” clause a high bar to clear. You’d just need a system where any leader’s intentions will be carried out so ineffectually that it makes no practical difference who’s in charge.
A system which can actually achieve desirable outcomes with an idiot in charge, though, is probably at least as difficult to implement as a system which ensures that only competent people will end up in charge.
