That likely brings us to improvements that are non-Pareto, hence rarely addressed in classical economics.

Possibly, but it may also happen that the current issues are caused by coordination failures, which if solved could lead to Pareto improvements.

But even if there are no available Pareto improvements, it doesn't imply that this is the best of all possible worlds.
