Of course. For a start, "I'm sorry" doesn't fix anything. It can open the way for things to be fixed, but it's not any kind of glue in itself.
Some things can't be fixed without it, of course. Most of the unfixed and unfixable things in my life are because of the complete absence of "I'm sorry."
And "I'm sorry" can lead to forgiveness (fixed!) without regained or re-earned trust (still broken?) which is... something I'm happy with in many cases.
"I'm sorry" doesn't fix anything. But sometimes, it would be a good start.

I have to answer no to both of those - whether that means I'm daft or just very lucky I don't know.
