> In a properly secured design, a blown fuse should always induce a more restrictive state, because a blown fuse cannot be unblown in an economically feasible way.

I disagree: If there's any risk that the fuse will blow with normal usage, then a blown fuse means a defective product.

These are not safety fuses. They will never, in normal use, blow. These are fuses used only in a logic circuit. There is a way that the factory can make the fuse blow and then the circuit code or whatever can check is that fuse blowing and if so it will not do something.

"fuse" here refers to one-time-programmable memory, not to a safety current limiting device
