Stephen Glover accepts the downside of economic arguments:

That said, I would caution against making too much of the economic arguments.
Didn’t Brexit teach us that many people voted to leave the EU even though they feared it might make them poorer? People’s hearts can sometimes count more than their wallets.

His recommendation seems to be to accept a referendum but to delay it until Boris - hugely unpopular in Scotland - is no longer PM and the issues with Brexit are no longer making headlines. This way, the referendum is less likely to go in favour of devolution. But not to delay it until 2055 which he sees as too far off.
