Oh, Wordwind, how delighted I am that you saw this! All right--having re-read my original question, I have to concede the point. Yes, things can become unstirred. What I should have asked was, is there something that you can unstir--not 'cause to become unstirred'--, once you have stirred it? You also picked up on my thought that it doesn't necessarily have to apply to concoctions; you can stir relationships up, too, esp. when you play the game that's called "Let's You and Him Fight". (Meaning, you stay out of the discord while encouraging it between others.)
