I had read read that the US has sanctions on more than 20 percent of the countries of the world. Clearly most of those never mattered or had a potentially adverse future outcome over decades.

yes indeed, a lot of US foreign policy seems to be on auto-pilot. Cuba for instance, clearly no threat, yet embargo'ed for 60 years. Til what end? No one has any idea.

thats actually basically it. Sanction forever, until regime changes, ideally under a US instrument. Poorest countries simply starve, people have to migrate -Afghanistan, Syria etc - people born years after US invasion will have suffer, no end
