³the incomplete grandiosity of R ussia ²

[Olga Meerson]

Paul, you are correct about most assumptions and notions of defaul meanings, except the fact that несостоявшееся is not passive but reflexive, moreover, without the parallel transitive meaning in the non-reflexive. (Состоять means to consist and is NOT transitive).
