$Nope$ $"Nope"$

Explanation:

The system will shift to $oppose the change$ $"oppose the change"$ ; and $oppose$ $"oppose"$ does not mean $counteract$ $"counteract"$ . We speak of an $initial$ $"initial"$ reponse of a system at equilibrium. Of course, under different conditions, especially with regard to a change in temperature, the equilibrium might evolve, and new parameters might obtain. Le Chatelier's principle always refers to the initial response of the equilibrium.
