One wouldn't build a bridge across the channel and then stop when the estimated completion date had past saying, no problem, we will just stop there, people can swim the rest of the way from now on. The same is true of the brexit agreement. Things do take longer than expected to complete all the time, particularly when something is complex. There is absolutely no reason to leave without a deal, when we will still have to have some form of deal at a later date anyway. We cannot exclude trade with europe, it would be the height of stupidity
