I suspect it's the other way round - Intu is more a symptom of John Lewis's (and other retailer') woes.
Competition from the internet, higher minimum wage, weaker £ to $ and increased business rates (in some regions) all conspired to make the John Lewis stores that closed unprofitable, even before the onset of Covid 19.
