In the end, the State becomes even bigger and more powerful than the pre-revolutionary one.
I'd suggest that's the nature of government. It always grows.

Of course it does. That is the nature government, and I think it ultimately comes down to a matter of weighing advantages. We here in the US of A have a huge, plodding, inefficient beaurocracy that has for the past 226 some-odd years been churning out what has proven to be the best system of government of its size in the world. Could it be better? Hell, yes! Could it be worse? Hell, yes!
