I agree that if Milei fails his association with libertarianism might have consequences for the movement in general.
Assuming he isn't pretending to be libertarian (I don't think he is), and is merely not a perfect libertarian in practice, I'd guess his tenure will help Argentina and help the movement learn something about switching a country away from socialism under libertarian goal posts.

Yeah I imagine there's pretty important path dependence and you can't just switch systems from one to another and have it work. The transition itself is a process and if not handled right will simply result in failure
The tricky part is that when things are unbearable, people may not politically accept slow transitions and they may demand instantaneous change, even if not actually possible.
