Well, if it wasn't broken when you took off, the clause
hasn't anything to say on the matter. Otherwise, who knows?
The clause says nothing about 'airworthiness'. Don't take
off when things 'need repair' and it won't be an issue.

It could, because the problem could develop while you have the plane.

For example: Flat tire, alternator failure, fuel filter failure, XPDR,
etc... all kinds of things can go wrong between the time you depart from the
home base and the time you return.
