No. You need pressure to enforce change. If crab forms work good enough to breed and not die then it stays. Note you don't see flying crabs, inland dessert crabs, mountain crabs.

Do you have the genome from crabs 1000s of years ago? No?

these trillion year old living fossils have empathy for each other. ponder that.

Let's be real though it can't right itself after falling on it's back. That's a major disadvantage.

Yes, it’ll never survive. Evolutionary failure.

You would think after 445 million years the Horseshoe crab would have favored some kind of adaption to the tail which allows them to flip back over.

I guess that they don't flip often enough for it to be a problem. Just like some humans kill themselves but not enough for us to go extinct. Lazy analogy but I need to sleep

It's okay though because they have each other.

Australian ski slopes are becoming infested with mountain crabs which hide under the snow and trip people. They even have venomous barbs in their claws but they're generally not sharp enough to pierce human skin despite the crushing pressure. They're more likely to break a finger bone than they are to actually pierce a finger's flesh, for example. Not that they're particularly venomous anyway (for now).

No they're so just well adapted that they're not really subject to much in the way of selective pressure
