 I don't think sensible protagonists have ever thought that.
What they do think, is that we do a lot of trade with  a lot of the other 27 that makes continuing to do the trade as easy as possible a sensible goal for all parties.
And us leaving, leaves a sizeable hole in the EU budget that the majority of the 27 are unable to fill.
