How does the low pH of lysosomes protect the rest of the cell from lysosomal enzymes in case the lysosome breaks?

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
  1. Lysosomal enzymes become inactive at the neutral pH of the cytoplasm 
  2. Lysosomal enzymes immediately degrade themselves upon release
  3. The broken lysosome rapidly repairs itself before enzymes escape
  4. The cell secretes inhibitors to neutralize the enzymes
