It's more about the entertainment and seeing what Russian politicians will do without their iPhones and Apple Watches if Apple were to decline and stop selling in Russia. Because if they do comply it will be boring. No fun here.

They'll use Samsung, Huawei, Whatever. I am not sure how politician's mind works but I doubt they will perform collective seppuku.

Me personally I would not give a rat's a$$ if any of major brands has gone out of business (except of feeling sorry about employees). But then again, the only things I use my phone for are actual phone calls, GPS (off-line software mind you), bike computer and occasionally camera.
