It wasn't unrealistic at all. They're already wary of us and think we would behave in exactly that way. Many of them are just waiting for it to happen. The last thing we should do is give truth to that opinion. The gains with Garlemald relations are because everyone has been careful to do everything possible to allow them to retain their agency.
