Whether you are the most Spartan of Brexiteers or a wistful federalist, so much changed between 1975 and 2016 that the electorate was entitled to be consulted
Effectively, you accept that Cameron called the referendum primarily for party management reasons. I presume you would accept that, just as those who opposed membership did not accept the 1975 referendum result as the final say, those who believe that the European Union will never be truly European without Britain are fully entitled to hope for the day when they will get the chance to reverse the 2016 result. Your final paragraph sounds like a desperate plea to them to accept defeat.
And what would the "worst possibility" referred to in your final sentence have been? Some form of coup by frustrated Brexiteers?

Precisely. And if they had been after Treaties of Lisbon & Maastricht then 2016 wouldve passed like any other.
