If you read the referenced material you will find (1'st ap note) -
And (TI ap note) -
The 2'ond ap note also specifically makes clear total elimination is NOT possible.
As do the others in their findings.

And (TI ap note) -
Your comment -It is not possible to prevent metastability in flip-flops, so systems must be designed so that, to a sufficient degree of probability,
no malfunctions appear in the circuitry.
Where did you read this ?So a ratty signal to a DC latch set/reset input could theoretically cause a momentary metastable state but it has to eventually go to the commanded state. A latch cannot indefinitely stay in the metastable condition or stay in an illegal state.
