Triggering Manual Action Won`t Fix Algorithmic Search Issues

Triggering Manual Action Won`t Fix Algorithmic Search Issues in Google

"If a site had some kind of algorithmic penalty, would causing a manual action, then fixing it, cause the algorithmic issue to be lifted?

"As you can imagine, the answer is no.  An algorithmic issue is just that – an algorithmic issue.  Filing a reconsideration request to fix a manual action, whether it is for pure spam, schema markup spam or one of the many other manual actions, would only fix that one issue, not anything else that impacts the site positively or negatively."?
