You're absolutely correct and if there's one thing I wish I included it would've been a 'charitable' description of the possibilities of Brexit. The reason why it wasn't included is that I think the actual motivations of the arch-Brexiteers within parliament and the media aren't a contributing factor to why Brexit happened. They certainly had a vision for a potential Brexit but I don't think that played any role in the decision to hold a referendum, and I believe only a very small subset of the 52% voted Leave did so because they shared the 'Singapore with worse weather' vision of the Brexit elite.
