The barriers are not only legal but also enormously high in political and practical terms. Until and unless it appears even remotely likely to actually happen, which it doesn't, I don't see any point in continuing along this line. Even in the few days since the idea was floated, it has essentially disappeared from public discussion. Of all the things that might happen, good or bad, this just isn't one of them.
