A better "debate"
A NON-RANDOM THOUGHT for once.
Listening to BBC running Imperial propaganda as always, "debating" whether Brexit is the end of the universe or the end of the universe, "debating" whether Trump is the most dangerous and evil dictator in history or the most dangerous and evil dictator in history.
We report, you decide... but you CANNOT pick a decision that is outside our wildly diverse range of choices. We've given you a vast array of possibilities, all you have to do is pick one.

No.
Simple fact.
EU is dissolving. Like other monstrously monstrously monstrously evil empires through history, it is collapsing from its own wild stupidity and infinite evil. Nature takes care of monsters who violate every law of nature and physics and morality and logic, plus infinitely more laws that Nature couldn't imagine.
We SHOULD be asking a question based on history.
Compare 1918 and 1945 and 1990. When the German and British empires collapsed after WW1, treaties and other arrangements produced the fuel for a century of new wars. When Germany and Japan were defeated after WW2, treaties and MAD produced comparative stability in Europe and Africa, but not in the Orient. When USSR collapsed in 1990, the LACK of arrangements allowed USA STRONG to go batshit murderous bonkers, lighting all the Arab fires that had been waiting for a match since 1918.
Comparing those three endgames should yield a set of desirable actions to handle EU's collapse. Fucking constants and fucking variables as fucking always.
