If the cause of the crash is in any way related to the persisted data, there's a good chance you're now stuck in a crashloop.

If it can avoid crashing, other functionality may continue to work fine.

this is true for any kind of error branch - if the cause is persisted, it's going to still be there on the next iteration.
