Redundancies in homeostasis

Type 1 diabetes is given as an example immediately after stating "Some homeostatic mechanisms have inbuilt redundancies." But I see that only as an example of a failure in homeostatis. I don't see redundancy explained in that example. So either that connection should be fleshed out or if there's not then I suggest to move (or remove) diabetes example so it doesn't follow redundancy statement as if illustrating that.

It gets complicated and wild require lifting whole cloth from textbooks for good sources. Would start to be original research otherwise. Original research ex: type 1 diabetes is compensated by kidney excretion of excess blood sugar and creation of ketone bodies, the former of which eventually leads to kidney failure and the latter of which leads to metabolic acidosis.
