He should've been able to see it coming. it actually was a pretty good plan. It was never meant to solve the entire Uchiha crisis. A series of freak accidents made Uchiha redemption pretty much impossible, including Madara's craziness setting the bar, Madara saving Obito and indirectly causing the Kyubi attack which lead to more suspicion, then Danzo directly sabotaging attempts at peace.

Tobirama's plan wasn't conceived to deal with that. It was simply a means to stop any immediate revolt, not to solve the Uchiha Crisis on the long run. The other Hokage are partially responsible for Tobirama's plan to fail, but mostly it's a series of freak accidents caused by insanely powerful shinobi that would've required the Hokages to be clairvoyant to properly deal with.
