Let’s ignore all the terrible or inefficient monarchs ever. Or the terrible systems that are aristocracy and feudalism. Or the fucking treasury drain that is court culture.
Good monarchs are a rarity, useless ones the norm, bad ones commonplace.
If that were the case, then monarchy wouldn't have lasted so long. The truth is it was a much more stable system than modern systems of organization, most of which haven't lasted very long at all.
