You may well be right about the economic cost of no deal but I don't see a deal coming off now either, so chances are it'll be a stalemate leading to a general election which I can see Corbyn winning, and that would almost certainly have a very negative impact on the £, even if it resulted in the UK remaining.
Talking neutrally (which I'm obviously not) I'd say the safest economic option is to remain in the EU with a moderate conservative government in parliament, but I think neither brexiteers or those who support a Corbyn government are primarily motivated by economic performance. I think both camps are prepared to take a hit in that regard.
