Ok.  I don't think anyone is suggesting here that the potential does not
exist or that it should be entirely ignored.  What is being suggested is
that it is a grossly overblown consideration at this time.

Given the snail's pace at which even the quickest organizational changes
take place in the SCA, I submit that it is unreasonable to  believe that
any principality in this kingdom (land of the acarchists that it is), could
reach the required state of development and then reach a concensus to
separate in fewer than ten to fifteen years.    

By the way, I disagree with you entirely that separation is the likely or
most probable outcome.
