Time passing can often "fix" some situations especially with networked
systems.

Most common is when data is cached.  Often network program cache data
for x minutes rather than refetch from the network to save time (e.g.
LMS does this for many URLs).  If network data changes then program will
use cached data but it is invalid and so functionality is broken.

Another instance used to be DNS.  If a DNS entry is changed - it can
take time to propagate across the net to secondary DNS server and so
after a DNS change for a while some user may pick up "out of date" IP
address until their local DNS server get the new update.
